YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump signed an executive order that calls for dismantling the Department of Education, and sending education back to the states. Ginny Gentles, director of Education Freedom & Parental Rights Initiative at the Defense of Freedom Institute, believes schools could control their own funding for programs before the Education Department was created. Wil Del Pilar, senior VP with EdTrust, says the department should be kept because graduation rates were at their lowest before it was established.
