President Trump on Monday said that Education Secretary Linda McMahon will begin the process of dismantling the Education Department in the wake of
the Supreme Court decision allowing the administration to resume layoffs
at the agency.
�The United States Supreme Court has handed a Major Victory to Parents and Students across the Country, by declaring the Trump Administration may
proceed on returning the functions of the Department of Education BACK TO
THE STATES. Now, with this GREAT Supreme Court Decision, our Secretary of Education, Linda McMahon, may begin this very important process,� Trump
said on Truth Social.
The high court�s decision is a victory for Trump, enabling him to move
forward with fulfilling one of his major campaign promises to end the
federal agency�s work.
Trump continued, �The Federal Government has been running our Education
System into the ground, but we are going to turn it all around by giving
the Power back to the PEOPLE. America�s Students will be the best,
brightest, and most Highly Educated anywhere in the World. Thank you to
the United States Supreme Court!�
The Supreme Court issued its decision earlier on Monday, in a 6-3 vote
along ideological lines.
Since taking office, the administration has sought to lay off half of the agency�s workforce and transfer some of its core functions, such as
managing student loans, to other federal departments.
U.S. District Judge Myong Joun blocked those efforts in May and ruled that Trump needed congressional authorization, ordering him to reinstate the
roughly 1,400 workers who had been laid off two months prior.
The ruling on Monday lifts Joun�s injunction as the litigation proceeds in
the lower courts, but it is not a final decision.
The majority did not explain its reasoning, as is typical in emergency decisions, while the three Democratic-appointed justices publicly
dissented and called the ruling �indefensible.�
