A bill to terminate the Department of Education.

Bill 119 s 1148, also known as the "A bill to terminate the Department of Education," is a proposed piece of legislation in the US Congress. The bill aims to abolish the Department of Education, which was established in 1979 under President Jimmy Carter.

If passed, this bill would effectively eliminate the Department of Education and transfer its responsibilities to other government agencies. The Department of Education is currently responsible for overseeing federal education policies and programs, including student loans, grants, and civil rights enforcement in schools.

Supporters of the bill argue that the Department of Education is unnecessary and that education policy should be left to state and local governments. They believe that abolishing the department would save taxpayer money and reduce federal government overreach in education. Opponents of the bill argue that the Department of Education plays a crucial role in ensuring equal access to education for all students, regardless of their background. They believe that abolishing the department would weaken federal protections for students and lead to disparities in education funding and resources. Overall, Bill 119 s 1148 is a controversial piece of legislation that has sparked debate among lawmakers and education advocates. It remains to be seen whether the bill will gain enough support to pass in Congress.
