President Trump plans to sign the executive order today by sending officials to the closure of the Department of Education, making the dream for GoP, but became the main topic in its company in 2024.
An order, which is practically sure that will be challenged in court, will send Linda McMahon Secretary to “take all the necessary measures to facilitate the closure of the Department of Education and Education in the States”, in accordance with the internal document, which details the White House’s order and official.

McMuhon gave preview the reconstruction of the agencies in the hours of the e -mail hours after it was oath as a secretary of the department: “We will cooperate with Congress and other federal agencies to determine the best way forward to fulfill the expectations of the president and the American people.”
Without resistance to the Senate in the Senate and with a moody coalition in the House of Representatives, the prospect of adopting a bill headed by GoP to completely close, the department remains unlikely. But many tough allies of Trump in the Republican Party expressed support.
