Welcome to this week's education briefing. The biggest story dominating headlines right now involves the Trump administration's active reorganization of the Department of Education, and it's reshaping how federal education money flows across the country.

Here's what's happening. The Department of Education still exists and Congress hasn't voted to abolish it, but something significant is underway. Through a series of administrative actions, the administration is transferring programs to other federal agencies. The Department of Labor is now taking on the lion's share, managing more than twenty billion dollars in K-12 funding annually, including Title I grants that support disadvantaged students. This marks a major shift from how education has been handled for decades.

Education Secretary Linda McMahon stated that 2025 will go down as a banner year for education, one where they restored merit in higher education, rooted out waste, and began returning education control to parents and local communities. The administration's vision includes breaking up what it calls the federal education bureaucracy by moving career and technical education to Labor, tribal education programs to the Interior Department, and international language initiatives to the State Department.

But this is sparking real pushback. Twenty states are pushing back against these transfers, and legal experts warn the moves could fragment oversight. Senator Elizabeth Warren called for McMahon's resignation, arguing that shifting education programs to agencies lacking expertise in education poses serious risks. There's particular concern around special education, where changes to oversight could affect critical protections under federal law.

For American families, the practical impact remains uncertain. Some worry about losing specialized attention to education issues. Others support the shift toward workforce alignment. Schools are navigating confusion about which agency handles what, and states are still figuring out implementation details.

Looking ahead, listeners should watch for ongoing negotiated rulemaking sessions on workforce education and any additional program transfers. If you're an educator, student, or parent wanting more details, the Department of Education website and Education Week provide comprehensive coverage.
