"Why Abolishing the DOE Won't Endanger Our Nation's Future"

(By J.

Similarly, the Department of Education, established in 1979, has faced constitutional scrutiny. Various administrations aimed to reform education, yet substantial challenges persist. Trump's proposal to streamline education with labor raised concerns about equity. Critics argue eliminating the DOE could exacerbate educational disparities, while supporters contend it’s a strategic shift in combating mediocrity, not a threat to national education.
