Abolish the Federal Dept. of Education

Let's bring education back home.

Bring education back to the states and local communities, eliminating the massive federal bureaucracy trying to dictate our children's lives: The Federal Dept. of Education (DOE).

Since it began in 1979 the budget of the DOE has nearly quintupled to an astounding $69.9 billion, while the American education system continues a disappointed record of mediocrity. In recent annual PISA education rankings, American education was called “average” and commenting on the ranking USA Today lamented that “U.S. students trail global leaders.”

With consistently poor results, why should we allow the federal government to tax our money only to have the failing and expensive DOE return it back to the states?

Let’s bring our tax money back home. Let’s bring education back home. Sign the petition below to support abolishing the Federal Dept. of Education!

When you eliminate competition in any field, you will usually get garbage in return. We have been getting garbage from our school system since we let the government take control of our kids!! The DOE is all about money, unions and power........education doesn't even make a blip on their radar!! They need to go!!!!!!!
