Meet the new Department of Education and the Workforce

You probably heard that President Trump has created a plan to reorganize the federal government.  As part of that re-org, the Department of Education and Department of Labor may be combined into one agency and called the Department of Education and the Workforce.

While some view this as eliminating redundancy, others believe that folks at the Department of Labor have no business deciding education policy.  Meanwhile, there are a lot of unanswered questions, like who will run the department and how the merger will impact funding and enforcement efforts.

Either way, the plan will have to be approved by Congress, so it’s not a done deal.  Expect a lot of rhetoric as the plan unfolds and stay tuned!
