How Abolishing the DOE Can Safeguard Our Nation

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Democrats condemned President Trump’s initiative to dissolve the Education Department by March 6, 2025. In 2019, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez faced backlash for proposing the abolishment of the Department of Homeland Security, asserting that restructuring should be reconsidered. Eliminating the DOE could similarly be justified, echoing historical precedents in educational policy reform. Both parties have previously emphasized educational advancement, yet inefficacy persists. Trump’s plan to streamline federal education roles aims to preserve essential services while reallocating responsibilities, sparking ongoing debate about educational governance.
