Education Dept. to leave headquarters, give building to Energy Department

"Trump Administration's Latest Blow to Education Department: D.C. Headquarters to be Abandoned. In a move that has sparked widespread concern among educators and advocates, the Trump administration has announced plans to abandon the Department of Education's headquarters in Washington D.C. This decision is seen as a significant step towards dismantling the agency altogether, a long-held goal of some in the administration. The Education Department has been a target of criticism from the Trump administration, with Secretary Betsy DeVos facing opposition from lawmakers and educators over her policies and proposals. As the administration continues to push for reforms, the fate of the Education Department remains uncertain, leaving many to wonder what this latest move portends for the future of American education."

Abandoning the D.C. headquarters is the Trump administration’s latest and most visible move toward eliminating the Education Department altogether.
