Warren on Federal Judge Blocking Trump’s Attempt to Dismantle the Department of Education

Washington, D.C. – Today, in response to the news that a federal judge issued a preliminary injunction blocking Trump's attempts to dismantle the Department of Education., U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) released the following statement:

“Firing over 1,300 federal education workers was all part of Trump's illegal scheme to dismantle the Education Department. But Donald Trump is not a king, and his attempts to dismantle the Department of Education are illegal. This court ruling is a win for students with disabilities, for working-class students trying to afford college, and for teachers in under-resourced schools.”
