[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does DOE even do? Just because it exists doesn't mean it should exist forever. Where's the value add?

That's the problem with federal departments and agencies. Too many people are afraid to point out they're useless.[/quote]

So, because you don't know what it does, it shouldn't exist? How about researching that first? Congress passes a lot of ecducaiotn related laws and DoE implements those laws.

Of local interest, DoE:
awards grant to fund your local magnet school programs; 
supports charter school programs;
funds school vouchers in DC, which impacts DC kids and DC private school budgets;
awards grants for school construction;
funds education for children of members of the uniformed services;
funds school emergency management, like school shooter preparedness;
grants for educating homeless children and youths;
grants for school infrastructure
funds research into developing early education and early intervention programs;

...and so on.[/quote]
