President Trump announced his plan to save American education. His vision is to take back control from the radical left maniacs who teach our children and give our children the high-quality, pro-American education they deserve:
President Trump’s Plan to Save American Education
- Cut federal funding for any school or program that pushes critical race theory, gender ideology, or other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political content on our children.
- Direct the Departments of Justice and Education to open civil rights investigations into any school district found to have committed race-based discrimination, including discrimination against Asian Americans.
- Aggressively pursues potential violations of the Constitution’s Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause, as Marxism taught in schools is diametrically opposed to Judeo-Christian teachings.
- Find and remove the radicals who have infiltrated the federal Department of Education and reach out to Congress and reaffirm the President’s ability to fire dysfunctional employees.
- Veto the evil attempt to weaponize civic education.
- Keep men out of women’s sports.
- Create a new credentialing body to certify teachers who embrace patriotic values and understand that their job is not to teach children, but to educate them.
- Implement massive funding priorities and favorable treatment for all states and school districts that make the following historic reforms in education:
- Abolish the tenure of teachers in grades K to 12 and adopt merit pay.
- Drastically reduce the number of school administrators, including the “DEI” bureaucracy.
- Adopt a parental bill of rights that includes full curriculum transparency and universal school choice.
- Implement direct election of school principals by parents as the ultimate form of local control.
TRANSCRIPT
Our public schools have been taken over by radical left maniacs. Here’s my plan to save American education and restore power to American parents.
First, we will cut federal funding for any school or program that pushes critical race theory, gender ideology, or other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political content onto our children. We will not allow that to happen.
Next, I will direct the Departments of Justice and Education to open civil rights investigations of any school district found to have engaged in race-based discrimination. That includes discrimination against Asian Americans.
President Trump’s Plan to Protect Children from Left-Wing Gender Insanity
Even the Marxism taught in our schools is diametrically opposed to Judeo-Christian teachings and, in many ways, resembles a newly established religion. Can’t let that happen. For this reason, my administration will aggressively pursue potential violations of the Constitution’s Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause. It is very simple.
Additionally, on day one, we will begin to find and eliminate radicals, fanatics, and Marxists who have infiltrated the Federal Department of Education, and that includes others, and you know who you are. Because we don’t allow anyone to hurt our children. Joe Biden has given these lunatics unchecked power—I’ll shoot them and escort them out of the building. I will tell Congress that any appropriations bill I sign must reaffirm the president’s ability to fire defiant employees. It’s all about our children.
I will veto the evil attempt to weaponize civic education. Men are kept away from women’s sports. We will create a new credentialing body that will be the gold standard anywhere in the world to certify teachers who embrace patriotic values, support our way of life, and understand that their job is not to teach children, but simply to educate. them.
Ending Supreme Court Affirmative Action May Be Just the Beginning
- One, abolish teacher tenure for grades K through 12, so we can remove BAD teachers, and adopt Merit Pay to reward GOOD teachers. We want great teachers in our schools.
- Two drastically cut the bloated number of school administrators, including the costly, divisive, and unnecessary Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion bureaucracy.
- Three, adopt a Parental Bill of Rights that includes complete curriculum transparency, and a form of universal school choice.
- And Four, implement the direct election of school principals by the parents. It’s all about the parents for their children. More than anyone else, parents know what their children need. If any principal is not getting the job done, the parents should be able to vote to fire them and select someone who will. This will be the ultimate form of local control. Our country has frankly never had anything like it, or let’s say for at least the last fifty years.
As the saying goes, personnel policy, and at the end of the day, if we have pink communists teaching our kids, we have a big problem.
When I’m president, we’ll put parents back in charge and let them have the final say. We re-teach reading, writing, and math — called arithmetic — and we give our children the high-quality, pro-American education they deserve.
We spend twice as much per student as any other country in the world. We keep spending our money, but now we’re going to get our money’s worth. We’re at the bottom of every education list, and we’re spending more. We’re going to turn it around. We may spend more, but we’re at the forefront of education wherever you go in the world.
Thank you very much.
