Secretary McMahon Marks First Year by Expanding Partnerships to Decentralize Federal Education Authority

“Education Secretary Linda McMahon announced partnerships with the State Department and HHS as part of an administration effort to dismantle the Education Department and return authority to states.”

This confirms the specific administrative mechanism being used to bypass Congress and begin the dismantling process.

“Responsibility and authority should start there—parents first, then teachers, states, and finally the federal government.”

This post outlines the administration's official hierarchy of educational authority, placing the federal government last.
