Will the Education Department’s research arm survive Trump?

"Trump's Education Department Overhaul Hits Independent Research Arm: Congress Weighs in Next. The Trump administration's ambitious plan to dismantle the Education Department has been making waves, but its latest target may be the most surprising yet: the department's independent research arm, known as the National Center for Education Statistics. This non-partisan organization provides critical data and analysis on education trends, helping policymakers make informed decisions. However, with the Education Department facing increased scrutiny, the future of this vital research arm hangs in the balance - and now, Congress is getting involved, potentially adding another layer of uncertainty to the department's already tumultuous future."

The Trump administration’s efforts to dismantle the Education Department have ensnared even its independent research arm. Now, it might take another hit from Congress.
