Bill > HR202

This bill, the States' Education Reclamation Act of 2023, proposes to abolish the Department of Education and transfer its programs to other federal agencies such as the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, Interior, Defense, and Treasury. It provides grants to states to fund elementary, secondary, and postsecondary education programs, with states having the flexibility to use the funds as they see fit. The bill also includes provisions for auditing state use of the funds and prohibiting discrimination in programs funded by the grants. The bill aims to reduce federal involvement in education and empower states and local communities to govern and manage their own education systems.
