This week on Freedom to Learn, @KirstenBaesler, Assistant Secretary for the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education for @usedgov, addresses the myth that closing the Education Department strips funding for students and emphasizes how the administration's interagency agreements increase efficiency.
In May, DFI urged the Treasury Department to prioritize rulemaking for the Education Freedom Tax Credit, fought to reduce tuition for graduate programs, and defended religious higher education programs.
DFI has released its annual report for 2025 – a year of fighting gender ideology and antisemitism in schools, defending parental rights and due process on campus, and advancing education freedom for every family.
The Department of Education doesn’t teach a single kid. @AngelaLMorabito explains how student enrollment is down, bureaucracy is up, and parents are tired of paying for a system that keeps expanding while results keep getting worse. Good thing the Department of Education has already been cut in half!

WATCH: Arizona's Glendale Community College used AI to read graduates’ names at its 2026 commencement ceremony. The technology malfunctioned, skipping many students' names and robbing them of a milestone moment.
