I’m writing to express my deep outrage over the administration’s dismantling of the Department of Education and its vital programs and workforce. As a constituent, I have a few asks of you: 1. Please oppose the transfer of education programs to other agencies that will not sufficiently enforce laws and protections for students. 2. Please forcefully push back against the proposal to reclassify certain professional degrees and limit student loans to receive them. 3. Please conduct oversight into the administration’s unconstitutional dismantling of a federal agency without congressional action or approval. 4. Please refuse to pass any federal funding bill that enables this administration’s drastic cuts to vital education programs and protections for students. As a teacher in this great state, It is galling to see the attacks this administration is perpetrating against public education. Such attacks are also supremely self-defeating for our nation. A strong educational infrastructure is at the core of national success. Fight back. Thank you!
