Vital Education Dept functions shifting to other agencies

President Trump is shifting some of the Education Department’s vital functions to other federal agencies. As the administration dismantles the Education Department, the president announced that federal student loans will be handled by the Small Business Administration. He claimed the loans “will be serviced much better” than in the past, even though the SBA is cutting more than 40 percent of its workforce as it takes over tens of millions of student loans. The White House also said programs for students with disabilities will shift to the Department of Health and Human Services.
