Trump’s Effort to Gut Education Dept. Rebuked by Senate Committee

The Senate Committee has delivered a significant rebuke to President Trump's plan to significantly reduce the Education Department's funding and role, passing a bipartisan bill that stands as the most robust congressional opposition to the administration's agenda so far. This move underscores the ongoing tension between the executive branch and Congress over the scope of federal agencies. While the bill faces an uncertain path to becoming law, its passage signals a strong stance by lawmakers to protect educational programs and resources.
