The Trump administration announced on Tuesday that it is moving oversight of special education and civil rights enforcement away from the U.S. Department of Education.
The Department of Education will shift two of its major departments, including the office for civil rights and the administration of special education programs, to other government agencies.
These changes are part of President Donald Trump's efforts to dismantle the department. These transfers mean that the bulk of the Education Department's functions have now been distributed across various other agencies.
