Swift Action By Secretary McMahon Empowers States and Parents

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The America First Policy Institute (AFPI) applauds early actions by Secretary of Education Linda McMahon to streamline operations, reduce costs, and bring education back to where it belongs – the states. Rooting out bureaucratic redundancies and wasteful government spending aligns with the America First vision for an education system that empowers parents, embraces local control, and promotes academic excellence.

Erika Donalds, AFPI’s Chair of the Center for Education Opportunity, said the following in support of Secretary McMahon:

“Returning power to states, cutting administrative bloat, and ending wasteful spending at the Department of Education is paving the way for high-quality education in America. Secretary McMahon’s courageous leadership is much needed at the Department as her careful approach minimizes disruption to essential services and safeguards the interests of American taxpayers, students, and parents.”
