  The Oklahoma delegation is all in on abolishing the Department of Education after President-elect Donald Trump floated the idea. However, one of them doubts he'll get the Senate votes.

The article from Fox News discusses a proposal by Oklahoma lawmakers to abolish the state's Department of Education, which has stirred significant controversy. The initiative, led by Republican state Rep. Justin Humphrey, aims to replace the current Department of Education with a new entity called the Oklahoma Education Agency. This move is purportedly in response to dissatisfaction with the current state Superintendent Ryan Walters, who has been criticized for his handling of educational policies and his focus on cultural issues over educational outcomes. Critics of the bill argue that it's a political maneuver rather than a solution to educational challenges, pointing out that the new agency would still require similar administrative structures. Supporters, however, believe it would streamline operations and remove what they see as unnecessary bureaucracy. The proposal has ignited debates on educational governance, the role of state agencies, and the political motivations behind such drastic changes.
