Education Secretary Reveals Trump's Strategy for State-Controlled Education
July 27, 2025 - 02:49
President Donald Trump's Education Secretary, Linda McMahon, recently discussed her efforts to work closely with state governors during an interview with Fox News Digital at the National Governors Association (NGA). McMahon emphasized the administration's commitment to returning control of education to individual states, a move that aligns with Trump's vision of decentralizing educational authority.
During her conversation, McMahon highlighted the importance of empowering states to tailor their education systems according to local needs and priorities. She argued that states are better positioned to address the unique challenges faced by their communities, as they have a deeper understanding of the specific educational requirements of their populations.
The Secretary's remarks come amid a broader push for educational reform, which aims to reduce federal oversight in favor of state-led initiatives. McMahon's collaboration with governors is seen as a crucial step in implementing these changes, as she seeks to foster a cooperative relationship that will enable states to innovate and improve their educational frameworks.
