Resistance against Trump's Potential Move to Abolish Education Department

Credited from: THEHILL

  • Elimination of the Department of Education has been a longstanding goal for some Republicans since its establishment under President Carter.
  • Historically, even Reagan's attempts to abolish the department faced significant congressional resistance, highlighting ongoing bipartisan support for its programs.
  • The department manages key funding initiatives, like Title I for low-income schools and special education grants, which are crucial in many Republican districts.
  • Transitioning oversight of student loans to private banks could generate substantial opposition due to concerns over rising interest rates.
  • There's a possibility that resistance might arise even from local Republicans who value the programs administered by the department, should Trump attempt to close it.
