WASHINGTON: Supreme Court agreed Monday the Trump administration can proceed with dismantling the education department by firing more than 1,000 workers.
The order is a significant victory for the administration and could ease Trump's efforts to sharply curtail the federal government's role in the nation's schools.
The Trump administration has announced plans to fire over 1,300 workers, a move that would effectively gut the department, which manages federal loans for colleges and enforces civil rights laws in schools. The department began the year with more than 4,000 employees. The move by the justices allows for dismantling inner workings of a department created by Congress without legislators' input.
