The dismantling of the U.S. Department of Education would be detrimental to securing equal access to quality education for all Americans. The Department plays a crucial role in enforcing federal laws like the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and distributing funding to support disadvantaged students. Its core mission is to promote academic excellence and ensure equal educational opportunity. Eliminating it would remove essential oversight and resources, setting back decades of progress in making education more equitable across the nation. I urge you to strongly oppose any efforts to defund or dismantle this vital federal agency that upholds one of our most fundamental rights.
