Cuts at the Department of Education Could Hit Vulnerable Students Hard, Advocates Worry
UNITED STATES, JUL 15 – The Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling allows the Trump administration to cut nearly half of the Education Department's workforce despite earlier court blocks and ongoing litigation.

- Some who work in education worry that vulnerable students who rely on the Department's programs will suffer without it operating at full force, while the Trump administration claims those initiatives won't go away.
