Bill Summary
A BILL To abolish the Department of Education and to provide funding directly to States for elementary and secondary education, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill seeks to abolish the Department of Education and transfer its functions, except for the Federal Pell Grant program and the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program, to the Secretary of the Treasury. It also establishes a block grant program where the Secretary of the Treasury will allocate funds to states based on the proportion of federal individual income taxes paid by the residents of each state. States can then use these funds to support elementary and secondary education in their respective states. The bill expresses the sense of Congress that states should distribute non-federal funds for education in a way that promotes competition and parental choice in education.
