The Trump administration's plan to dismantle the Education Department has been permitted by the Supreme Court, leading to approximately 1,400 layoffs and reducing the agency's workforce to about half of its previous size. Furthermore, a coalition of twenty-four states and the District has initiated a lawsuit against the administration regarding $6.8 billion of educational funding that has been withheld. These developments indicate significant changes in federal education policy and ongoing legal challenges stemming from these actions.
The Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration's plan to dismantle the Education Department—and lay off 1,400 employees—to continue, resulting in a workforce that will be about half the size it did before Mr. Trump returned to office.
Twenty-four states plus the District filed a suit against the administration over $6.8 billion in educational funding it has withheld.
