Posts - Bill - HR 2691 To abolish the Department of Education and to provide funding directly to States for elementary and secondary education, and for other purposes.
house 04/07/2025 - 119th Congress
We're proposing legislation to shift control over education funding directly to each state, effectively abolishing the federal Department of Education. This aims to empower local communities and parents to have more say in educational decisions, fostering competition and choice to enhance educational outcomes for children.
