US House Republicans take ‘first step’ toward dismantling Department of Education
The U.S. House Committee on Education and Workforce approved a legislative package to transfer the Department of Education's functions to other federal departments, aligning with President Donald Trump's plan to reduce federal education oversight. The bills aim to shift responsibilities like student aid and international education to agencies such as the Treasury, Labor, and State Departments, though the Senate's narrow GOP majority makes passage uncertain.
