(Daily Signal)—The White House plans to introduce another rescissions package soon that will include cuts to education funding, sources familiar with the matter tell The Daily Signal.
Reforming the education system has been a bedrock of the second Trump administration. President Donald Trump signed an executive order in March authorizing Secretary Linda McMahon to do everything in her power to dismantle the Department of Education. The department has laid off 1,300 career employees.
It is unclear what the rescissions package will cut from previously approved education spending. The bill will also include cuts besides education.
White House deputy chief of staff James Blair told reporters on Friday the next rescissions package can be expected “soon.”
“We’ve got a number of items we’re looking at also, obviously talking to the senators too,” Blair said. “They’re going through the appropriations process. We don’t know what’s important to them, but you know, you’ll obviously see that very soon.”
The rarely used rescissions process is a way to reduce federal spending.
Congress passed Trump’s first rescissions package at the end of last week, which cut $9.4 billion in funding for public radio stations NPR and PBS as well as for the U.S. Agency for International Development. This marked the first time in decades that Congress has approved a president’s request to rescind previously authorized funding.
Trump has also signed executive orders prohibiting gender ideology and critical race theory instruction at publicly-funded educational institutions.
