Education Dept moves more work to other agencies, but hasn’t reassigned more employees yet

from The Federal Drive with Terry Gerton

The Education Department is handing off more work to other federal agencies, as part of plans to dismantle its operations. It’s sharing some of its duties with the departments of State Department and the Department of Health and Human Services. Education transferred some of its employees to the Labor Department last year. But so far, no employees have been detailed to State or HHS. Federal News Network’s Jory Heckman has more. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
