Republican Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie has reintroduced H.R. 899 for the 118th Congress, which seeks to eliminate the U.S. Department of Education.
“I have introduced a bill to terminate the Department of Education. There is no Constitutional authority for this federal bureaucracy to exist,” Massie wrote Feb. 14 on Twitter.
Massie previously introduced H.R. 899 during the 117th Congress in February 2021. The bill ran a single sentence: “The Department of Education shall terminate on December 31, 2022.”
