Trump Admin Moves Education Grants to Labor

U.S. Education Department Transfers Grant Programs to Other Agencies: The Trump administration is moving forward with its plan to close down the Education Department, transferring billions in grant money to the Department of Labor. This includes funding for K-12 schools, particularly those in low-income areas. The Education Department will retain its student loan portfolio and funding for students with disabilities, but Secretary McMahon suggests these areas could also be managed by other departments. The goal is to convince Congress to make these changes permanent, demonstrating that schools and colleges can operate effectively without the Education Department. DNN | The Daily News Now!
