Summary
President Trump is shifting oversight of special education and civil rights from the Education Department to the Health and Human Services and Justice departments. This move aims to further dismantle an agency Trump has promised to close.
Why It Matters
The changes will likely impact how special education and civil rights are enforced at the federal level, potentially affecting millions of students and their access to necessary resources. By moving oversight to other departments, the administration may alter the priorities and effectiveness of programs that protect vulnerable populations in education.
