Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.) introduced the “Returning Education to Our States Act” on Thursday, aiming to dissolve the Department of Education (DOE) and transfer authority over education back to local governments. Rounds emphasized that the federal Department of Education has never directly educated any students, advocating for a system that empowers states and localities to take charge of educational policies and practices.
