Can you sell me on eliminating the department of education?

I’m from Oklahoma, arguably the reddest state in the country (every single county went to trump). Also ranked 49th in the nation in education. My wife is an elementary teacher. Our state superintendent is Ryan Walter’s. He has called teachers unions terrorist organizations, banned a number of books in schools (yes, even the ones that aren’t remotely ‘pornographic’), spent tax dollars on bibles for classrooms, insisted on showing a prayer video in all schools (where he prays for Donald trump specifically) and gone after teachers whom he disagrees with (revoking their certificates).

Should he have more control?

Do you support eliminating the DoE?

Do you think my states performance will improve without the DoE?

Do you see more states looking like Oklahoma without the DoE?
