The administration continues to use the pandemic to advance Trump’s and Stephen Miller’s long-standing anti-immigrant, white nationalist agenda. Shameful.
Trump on Monday [6/22/20] extended a freeze on green cards for new immigrants and signed an executive order to suspend new H-1B, L-1, J and other temporary work visas for skilled workers, managers and au pairs through the end of the year.
Betsy DeVos is directing millions of dollars of CARES Act funds intended for public schools and colleges to favored private & religious institutions. When you vote Donald Trump out, DeVos goes with him.
Betsy DeVos, Secretary of Education, released new federal regulations that no longer require coaches to report sexual misconduct. Just what college campuses need, less reporting of sexual assault (SARCASM).
Predatory, for-profit schools owned by Wall Street are poised to reap enormous amounts of the COVID-19 bailout funds for education. Millions of taxpayer dollars going to schools who are under active investigation by the Department Justice.
Dozens of for-profit colleges that are among those most likely to benefit from stimulus funding face thousands of claims from students demanding their money back because they say they were defrauded.
Evil Betsy DeVos may attempt to advantage of the COVID-19 crisis to pull back protections for students with disabilities. Seriously. We absolutely can not allow our special education law to be waived and must protect students’ rights.
The 2021 version of the Budget Cuts Series continues with another post that is utterly unbelievable. Cutting education funding for children should make these people unelectable. It seems no one is aware of it though and it'll stay that way with this sort of egregious action never showing up on televised news media. That's why it's here on Smart Dissent.
The Budget Cuts Series for the fiscal year 2021 continues this week. These cuts reflect what Trump and his Republican administration want to do to our country. Most of it will not be implemented because Democrats will block it. But the point is it shows us exactly what Republicans would want to do if they were given unchecked power. These cuts are so completely absurd that it’s no wonder Senate Budget Committee Republicans don’t want to hold a hearing on his budget.

Yes, that is a real headline. Betsy DeVos quielty destroying our educational system and hence our future.
A bookkeeping change at the Education Department will kick hundreds of rural school districts out of a federal program that for nearly two decades has funneled funding to some of the most geographically isolated and cash-strapped schools in the United States.
Our Budget Cuts Series enters the 2021 fiscal year with a third post in an unending series. There's so much to cover from the heinous budget that Trump's cronies unveiled in mid-February 2020.
For the fourth year in a row, the Trump administration proposed budget cuts that would kill the federal cultural agencies that support arts, humanities and public television stations across the country.
Trump’s 2021 budget calls for $30 million to close out the National Endowment for the Arts and $33.4 million to shutter the National Endowment for the Humanities.
