John,

Last week, Donald Trump signed an illegal executive order to completely
dismantle the federal Department of Education, just as outlined in Project
2025.

Elon Musk’s DOGE already cut the Department of Education’s staff in half
and slashed funding for critical programs. Instead of addressing
overcrowded classrooms, underpaid teachers, and schools struggling for
basic resources, the Trump administration is manufacturing a crisis.
They’re lying about threats to education, using bans on transgender
athletes and crackdowns on pro-Palestine students to clearly push their
agenda of privatizing education also while failing to protect the civil
rights of Black, LGBTQ+, and other vulnerable students from marginalized
backgrounds.

This is a war on students being led by corporations and charter schools
desperate to privatize our education system so they can profit off it.

Instead of a public education system that supports families with
protections and financial aid, they want to privatize it all to line CEOs'
pockets at the expense of students, especially kids with disabilities or
who come from low-income families or rural areas. And with no clear plan
for Pell Grants or the $1.5 trillion in student loan debt, the impact on
vulnerable students will only worsen.

An attack on public education is an attack on the working
class, John.

Trump doesn’t have the authority to abolish a department like this — only
Congress does. Justice Democrats’ members are fighting back, but there are
too many Democrats in the House and Senate taking money from charter
schools and private education corporations.
