The Education Department announced a plan to move dozens of grant programs and responsibilities to other federal agencies, prompting state officials to warn of duplication, confusion and operational disruption. The transfers include moving TRIO and Gear Up grants to the Department of Labor and shuffling other duties to Interior and HHS, officials said. States and school leaders told reporters the changes could complicate grant management and service delivery at a time many districts are already strained. Sen. Elizabeth Warren has pressed the department for answers and asked the agency inspector general to investigate the transfers, citing missing documentation and potential legal issues. Education Secretary Linda McMahon maintains schools will continue to receive federal money, but state superintendents say the handoff increases compliance burdens and raises questions about continuity for students and borrowers.
