Great work!
For too long, recurring patterns of sexual abuse and harassment by school officials have gone unchecked. Under the leadership of @POTUS and @EDSecMcMahon, ED is taking decisive action to ensure our schools are safe environments for all students.
Degrees of Debt: Worthless Diplomas Just Got Expensive… for Colleges
It’s 2026 – Americans deserve better digital experiences. The President agrees and is investing in better design for everyone. The TrumpAccounts app is the perfect example: easy to use, easy on the eyes, and clear communication about where you are in the process. My commentary to Yahoo in the comments.
I actually think the biggest unlock of Trump accounts isn't "a new way for people to invest" per se, it's a new way for philanthropic or employer-based contributions. I think within a few years you see employers competing to offer Trump account contributions to kids as an employee benefit. And I think there are a lot of wealthy Americans who have grown skeptical of establishment philanthropy who would be much more likely to just gift investments directly to American kids (as we're already seeing).
""The American Dream belongs to every child, and today we are equipping the next generation with the right to claim their rightful share of it." -- Scott Bessent Trump Accounts have their first active day on the market on Monday. townhall.com/tipsheet/camer…
Some celebrate with a party, some celebrate with fireworks, this pilot is celebrating America’s semiquincentennial with a very special flight. #America250
Under @POTUS’ Working Families Tax Cuts Act, Americans have access to the LARGEST national expansion of education freedom in HISTORY!
Thanks to President Trump, the student loan debt cycle ends NOW. Today, we’re launching the Repayment Assistance Plan and Tiered Standard plan – two new federal student loan repayment plans that protect students from runaway interest and ballooning principal balances. ed.gov/about/news/pre…
The birth years of Continental Congress members if the United States Declaration of Independence had been signed in 2026.
Governors and states are ON NOTICE. The American people will no longer tolerate their HARD-EARNED tax dollars being used to fund drugs, crime, and criminal organizations. With @POTUS’ leadership, @USDOL and @USLaborIG are putting an END TO THIS!
Months of work, condensed into seconds. Watch the transformation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool as crews drained, repainted, and refilled one of America's most iconic landmarks ahead of a busy summer season in Washington, D.C.
OPM is proposing to eliminate the outdated time-in-grade rule to help agencies promote employees based on merit, performance, skills, and readiness. This modernization effort will help agencies recognize high performers faster and strengthen the federal workforce. Read the press release here: opm.gov/news/news-rele…
For too long, students were told a four-year degree was the only path to success. The new Workforce Pell Grant changes that. Soon, low-income students can use federal student aid for job training programs leading to in-demand careers with less debt and faster pathways to work, in as little as 8 weeks.
About time. Divisive and unlawful standards have no place in our higher education quality assurance system.
A committee of the American Bar Association has voted to eliminate its already suspended DEI accreditation requirement. A final decision depends on a future vote by the ABA House of Delegates. One member of the committee said, “Even though I personally agree with [the diversity
The Trump Administration is proud to support students with disabilities by sending an additional $144M to states! We’re also ensuring expectant and new parents of children with disabilities have the support they need as they welcome their precious new blessing. ed.gov/about/news/pre…
Through our partnership with the Department of Education, we are creating efficiencies across our grant portfolio that will strengthen early learning, promote school readiness, and equip families with practical tools to reinforce student learning.
Today, ED and @HHSGov announced the first grant competitions under our partnership to help students succeed through stronger literacy, tutoring, school readiness, and family engagement. The Trump Administration continues to put students and families first.
IMPORTANT UPDATE: US Dept. Education Opens TITLE IX Investigation into LA Unified School District For Allegedly Protecting Sexual Predators. Our February investigation revealed data indicating 17% of students will encounter sexual misconduct by a teacher and/or staff in the public education system. Independent journalism leads the way!
SPECIAL INVESTIGATION: Top Attorney Claims “Epidemic of Sexual Abuse” in California Public Schools by Teachers, Coaches, or School Employees And Reveals That New Data Estimates 17% of Students Nationwide Will Face Sexual Misconduct During Their Public Education This week on
Any of the abhorrent actions listed here should result in termination or worse, but the LA teachers union appears to protect the employment of sexual predators over the safety of students, allowing alleged criminals to be reassigned to a different school. The Trump Administration will always fight to uphold the law, protect the safety of students, and restore common sense to our schools.
.@LASchools and its teachers union @UTLAnow allegedly letting sexual predators off the hook? Not on our watch… ed.gov/about/news/pre…
Commonsense loan caps are expected to reduce new federal student loan volume by $224 billion over the coming decade. federalregister.gov/documents/2026…
