Eliminate Jimmah Carter’s Department of Education...Turn control of schools BACK to the states where it belongs...
A separate Department of Education dates back to the Carter administration, but before that there was the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW), going back to 1953. The rest of HEW became HHS. The Secretary of Education became a cabinet officer but I think a lot of the programs probably go back to the HEW era.
