Description
There's been a lot of discussions in the current administration to streamline government. Part of that includes shuttering departments, including the Department of Education. Did you know for the vast majority of American history, the Department of Education didn't exist and was created in 1979? To walk us through the process of shutting down a department and the reasons for it, we are happy to welcome Neal McCluskey, director of Cato's Center for Educational Freedom. Neal has worked on education reform for over two decades and will share his insights with our panel.
