The US Supreme Court on Monday allowed the Trump Administration to proceed with a plan to dismantle the Department of Education.
In March, President Trump signed an executive order to dismantle the Department of Education.
“We’ve got to get the federal government out of education,” Trump declared. “The Department of Education has become a bloated bureaucracy that’s more interested in pushing its own agenda than in helping our kids learn. It’s time to put the power back in the hands of parents, teachers, and local communities.”
In May, a federal judge blocked the Trump administration from dismantling the department of education.
US District Judge Myong Joun, a Biden appointee, issued an injunction blocking the Trump Administration from laying off Department of Education workers.
“This case arises out of an attempt by Defendants to shut down the Department without Congressional approval,” the judge wrote.
Judge Joun ordered the Trump Administration to reinstate the Department of Education workers.
The Trump DOJ appealed Judge Joun’s injunction and the First Circuit Court of Appeals denied their request for an immediate administrative stay.
On Monday, the US Supreme Court in a 6-3 decision allowed Trump to proceed with mass firings at the Department of Education.
Liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor fumed in her dissent.
“This case arises out of the President’s unilateral efforts to eliminate a Cabinet-level agency established by Congress nearly half a century ago: the Department of Education,” Sotomayor wrote.
