Oppose defunding Department of Education for informed citizens

To: Rep. Steil, Sen. Baldwin, Pres. Trump, Sen. Johnson

From: A constituent in Janesville, WI

March 13

The intent behind dismantling the Department of Education appears to be keeping the populace uninformed and ill-prepared, as acknowledged by the statement "keep the people dumb, and they won't understand when we are creating policies that are not in their best interest." Severely cutting the department's workforce would deprive millions of access to quality education, financial aid, civil rights protections, and undermine programs benefiting underserved communities. This serves to maintain an undereducated citizenry unable to comprehend or challenge harmful policies enacted by ill-prepared leadership. A strong, well-funded federal education agency is crucial to ensure equal opportunities and an informed populace capable of making informed decisions in their best interests.
