Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : At the behest of Elon Musk and his unofficial Department of Government Efficiency, the department has also slashed millions in contracts and grants, saying the funds didn't align with the president's orders on diversity, equity, and inclusion.
43% : Trump doesn't have unilateral authority to abolish the U.S. Department of Education, which was established in statute nearly 45 years ago.
36% : A draft of Trump's expected executive order directs McMahon to "take all necessary steps to facilitate the closure of the Department of Education," acting on a campaign promise Trump made repeatedly last year.
