🛑 Federal Court Blocks Trump from Dismantling the Department of Education—For Now A major legal blow was delivered today as a federal court ruled that President Trump cannot proceed with his plan to gut the U.S. Department of Education, temporarily halting his long-promised move to restore state and local control over schools. The decision comes as part of a lawsuit filed by progressive legal groups, who argue that Trump’s proposed executive orders and funding freezes violate federal statutes and constitutional guarantees to “equal access.” ⚖️ What the Court Ruled: Trump’s executive action "exceeds statutory authority" under the current Department of Education Organization Act. The Court warned that removing federal oversight could disrupt funding pipelines tied to Title I, IDEA, and Pell Grants. The judge emphasized that dismantling the agency would require congressional approval, not unilateral executive order. 🎯 BETTR Breakdown: This isn’t about legality—it’s about preserving federal power over your kids. 📚 Washington wants to decide what your children learn. 🏛️ Unelected bureaucrats want to override your school board. 💰 They want to keep collecting tax dollars while delivering failing results. 🔥 JSA2026 Response: As Governor of New York, I will implement SEZs (School Empowerment Zones) and LEZs (Local Education Zones) to take back control of our classrooms—court or no court. If the federal government won’t let go, we will build better around it. Enough with delays. Enough with gatekeepers. Enough with indoctrination disguised as education. 📲 Join the fight for local control and real reform: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/06/04/trump-us-education-department-court-rules/84036272007/ #EducationReform #EndDOE #JSA2026 #TurnNYRed #BETTR #SEZ #SchoolChoice #StatesRights #ParentalRights #NoMoreFederalOverreach
