Trump further guts Education Dept. by shifting oversight of special ed, civil rights
The moves to the federal departments of Health and Human Services and Justice, respectively, would further dismantle an agency that President Donald Trump has vowed to close.
This shift undermines decades of progress in special education oversight. Moving civil rights enforcement and special ed accountability to state-level agencies risks inconsistent implementation and potential rollback of protections for vulnerable students. Real reform requires evidence-based policies, not administrative reorganization. #EducationPolicy #SpecialEd #CivilRights
