Trump admin asks SCOTUS to intervene and allow Ed Dept cuts
"Solicitor General D. John Sauer sought Supreme Court intervention to lift a federal injunction blocking staffing cuts at the Education Department, reinstating around 1,400 laid-off employees."
"Judge Myong J. Joun emphasized that a department with insufficient staff cannot fulfill its mandated duties, highlighting the necessity of personnel to maintain operational capacity."
The Trump administration is appealing to the U.S. Supreme Court to lift a federal court's injunction preventing staffing cuts at the U.S. Department of Education. Solicitor General D. John Sauer argues that the cuts, directed by executive order, are necessary despite a ruling by Judge Myong J. Joun, who blocked the layoffs and ordered reinstatement of over 1,400 employees. The appeals court supports Joun's view that a severely understaffed department cannot function effectively, raising concerns about the operational integrity of the Education Department under potential cuts.
