The Trump administration on Tuesday announced new interagency partnerships that will shift key U.S.
Department of Education functions, including special education oversight and civil rights enforcement, to other federal agencies, further advancing President Donald Trump's push to shrink the department.
The move, outlined in U.S.
Department of Education fact sheets and a June 16 letter from Education Secretary Linda McMahon, transfers civil rights enforcement and student privacy-related work to the Justice Department, while special education oversight shifts to the Department of Health and Human Services.
