Democrats are speaking out about President Trump’s executive order calling for the dismantling of the Department of Education. Harrison Fields, the Trump administration’s principal deputy press secretary, speaks about the order on “The Hill.”

“We’ve had a Department of Education since 1979 and since then, what has it done for the individual education of America’s students?” Fields asks. He believes President Trump will successfully close the agency before the end of his second term.
