Federal K-12 Funding Shifts to Department of Labor

 What does it mean now that more than $20 billion in K–12 funding is being moved from the Department of Education to the Department of Labor? The shift is part of a federal restructuring that redistributes major education programs to other agencies, changing who oversees key school funding. Supporters say it aligns with workforce goals, while critics worry it weakens academic oversight and creates confusion for states. (Source: Education Week)
