[b]That authority would move back to the Treasury Department. [/b]

Also closing DOE entirely would require a supermajority of 60 senators, meaning some Dems would need to join all the Reps, which is unlikely to happen. [/quote]
Where six 19-24 year old coders have the keys. Cool, cool.

Education Department makes sure schools are complying with IDEA and other federal laws (including anti-discrimination laws). Without them, oversight probably reverts to the states.

They collect data about school performance, but we can just leave that to US News, right? Your representatives won't get government data to guide them on education legislation, they'll just read parent reviews on GreatSchools.com. I'm sure it'll be fine.

That NEAP report that was just in the news last week? That's done by a division of the Dept of Ed. [/quote]

No, IDEA woukd go back to HHS (which was called HEW before it was split to create HHS and ED under Carter. Federal loans can go there, treasury or outsourced. Very eaay to do .[/quote]
