Ohio GOP Lawmakers to Formally Pledge Support for Dismantling of U.S. Department of Education

Republican Ohio lawmakers plan to formally pledge their support for the Trump administration dismantling of the U.S. Department of Education with a resolution this week.

Resolutions are planned in both chambers of the General Assembly that urge Congress to dissolve the federal department, as President Donald Trump has promised to do since the beginning of his second term.

The language of the Ohio resolution states that education "is not a power delegated to the federal government and has historically been governed by states and local communities accountable to families." It also states that under federal involvement, academic achievement has "stagnated or declined."
