    U.S. Government Shutdowns

    A Department of Education is not sweeping the Constitution under the rug. It is a way to make sure that every child in America at least gets a chance to a good education.

    U.S. Government Shutdowns

    Because there was no public education in the late 18th century, hence why the Constitution doesn't say anything about it. How would've the Founding Fathers known that the US would be that large and have a mandatory schooling for all children? They didn't even know if we'd last!
