President Donald Trump on March 20 signed an executive order to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education, keeping good on a campaign promise to target the federal agency.
The signing took place in the White House East Room and was attended by children who sat at desks; Republican lawmakers and governors, including Gov. Ron DeSantis; and Indian River County Moms for Liberty Co-Founder Tiffany Justice of Vero Beach, a former Indian River County School Board member.
