Action: Executive Order "Improving Education Outcomes by Empowering Parents, States, and Communities" What it does: The Executive Order directs the Secretary of Education to facilitate the closure of the US Department of Education "to the maximum extent appropriate and permitted by law," and without interrupting existing agency services, programs, and benefits. The Order emphasizes the current Administration's goal to transfer all education authority to local communities while also reiterating the requirement that all Federal funding recipients including higher education institutions cancel Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) and "gender ideology" programs under an earlier Executive Order on "Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schooling."Key Insights
