As part of the directive, McMahon is tasked with guaranteeing the effective and uninterrupted delivery of essential services, programs, and benefits to the American populace, even after the department's closure. Furthermore, the order emphasizes that any remaining Department of Education funds must not promote principles of DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) or gender ideology.

This executive move signifies a major shift in the U.S. education policy landscape, potentially impacting the way education is administered and funded across the nation.
