Donald Trump’s Policies and DOGE Aim to Eliminate the U.S. Department of Education

Donald Trump’s policies threaten to strip funding from K-12 schools serving low-income students unless they get rid of practices related to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Congressman Bennie G. Thompson cosigned a letter demanding that conservatives in Washington, D.C., stop this abuse of power and protect the Department of Education’s duty to serve all students. Education is a right, not a privilege.

K-12 Schools Could Lose Money to Help Fund: 

  • Resources for Students with Disabilities
  • Teachers
  • Books and School Technology
  • Head Start
