The Supreme Court on Monday allowed the Trump administration to move forward with plans that could lead to the shutdown of the Department of Education.
Despite objections from the court's liberal justices, the court granted a stay that lifts a lower court’s injunction blocking mass layoffs at the agency.
The legal challenges came from two fronts: a group of school districts and education unions, and a coalition of 21 Democratic-led states. Both argued that the mass terminations left the department unable to carry out key federal obligations, including administering student aid, supporting special education services and enforcing civil rights protections.
While President Trump has acknowledged that only Congress can formally eliminate the agency, he has ordered its staff and leadership to begin winding it down through executive action.

All hail the all & powerful SCOTUS for allowing POTUS to do the job he was elected to do.
Outstanding news—big win.
Correct.
“Supreme Court lets Trump proceed with mass layoffs at Department of Education”
Let’s is programming for the masses.
It’s great...though the downside is that there will be thousands of unemployed shrews with nothing to lose,loose in the streets.
Department of Education can and WILL be closed down.
“Both argued that the mass terminations left the department unable to carry out key federal obligations, including administering student aid, supporting special education services and enforcing civil rights protections.”
It only takes a handful of people to accomplish those tasks.
EC
I love the sound of fired Leftists in the morning.
Sounds like victory.
Key federal obligations? Why not make them state obligations?
Shut down this federal monstrosity!
The executive doesnt report to the judicial. They confirm his executive power, but the way its worded is wrong.
It's almost as if "journalists" are stupid.
They just want to spin it, the way they want to spin it.
It would NOT be reported this way if SCOTUS supported something a democrat president did or didnt do.
