A coalition of 21 Democratic attorneys general has initiated a lawsuit against the Trump administration, contesting the decision to significantly reduce the workforce of the Department of Education by approximately 50%. They argue that such layoffs hinder the department's ability to fulfill its legal responsibilities and threaten essential services for various student populations. New York Attorney General Letitia James and Oregon Attorney General Rayfield have vocally opposed these cuts, emphasizing the detrimental impact on students, especially those from low-income and disability backgrounds. The administration’s plans have sparked protests and concern over the future of education services nationwide.
This administration may claim to be stopping waste and fraud, but it is clear that their only mission is to take away the necessary services, resources, and funding that students and their families need.
Cutting the Department of Education isn't just a policy change, it's a direct hit to our kids and their futures, sending the clear message that we won’t tolerate any harm to our most vulnerable students.
