As President Trump moves to rein in federal spending and return more control to local governments, his administration has proposed targeted education funding cuts aimed at eliminating bureaucratic waste. Supporters say it’s a long-overdue move to cut red tape and empower parents and school boards. But critics warn it could lead to closures in underperforming districts. With the left sounding the alarm and teachers’ unions pushing back, the question remains: are these cuts necessary belt-tightening or a step too far?
Yes
It is.
No
It isn’t.
