US President Trump took a historical step for the US public opinion at the White House signing ceremony. Trump said that the Ministry of Education, which was established in 1980 with the presidential decree he signed, will be completely abolished.
“Today I will sign a decree to completely eliminate the Ministry of Education. This is a 45 -year historical step.” Trump said that both Republicans and many democrats support this step.
Trump argues that there is no need for a federal ministry in education, “We will now return the administration of education to the place where it belongs, that is, to the states.” he said.
“We spend more money by far”
Trump said that the US is not where it should be in the field of education and that there is a lot of work at this point, the state administrations are already the main elements in the field of education, he said.
“As the United States, we spend more money from all other countries, but we are still at the end of the list in terms of success.” “We will take all legal steps to close the Ministry of Education, but we will protect some programs for our children with disabilities,” Trump said. he said.
White House spokesman Karoline Leavitt said in a statement on the issue that the Ministry of Education would be closed step by step and the Congress should take the necessary legal step.
