The initiative aims to decentralize educational oversight, transferring authority to individual states.  The Department of Education, established in 1979, administers federal funding programs such as Pell Grants for low-income college students and Title I funds for K-12 schools serving disadvantaged communities. It also enforces civil rights laws to ensure equitable access to education.  The act creating the department described its mission, in part, as: “To strengthen the Federal commitment to ensuring
