YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe House Committee on Education and the Workforce is holding a hearing Wednesday morning to examine the state of education in the U.S., weeks after President Trump was sworn into the Oval Office for a second term.
Trump has issued a bevy of executive orders since returning to the White House, including actions to boost school choice programs and to defund schools that teach critical race theory. The president is also eyeing executive actions that would dismantle the Education Department — a threat that has already placed dozens of staffers on leave.
The event comes as Linda McMahon, Trump’s nominee to lead the department, has yet to face a Senate confirmation hearing or a vote.
The hearing is scheduled to begin at 10:15 a.m. EST.
