As of March 22, 2025, President Donald J. Trump has taken significant steps toward his campaign promise to eliminate the U.S. Department of Education.
On March 20, 2025, he signed an executive order directing Education Secretary Linda McMahon to “take all necessary steps to facilitate the closure” of the department and transfer authority over education to state and local governments, while ensuring the continuation of key services like student loans and Pell Grants.
