GOP Celebrates Trump’s Newest Move
America’s classrooms are about to change—for the better.
Rep. Burgess Owens (R-Utah) is praising former President Donald J. Trump for what he calls a “historic milestone” in restoring parental rights and fixing the nation’s failing education system. In an interview with Newsmax, Owens said Trump’s plan to reduce the federal role in education and return control to parents and local communities is “exactly what this country needs.”

Parental Control Over Education Is Finally Back
“This is a moment that truly matters,” Owens said. “President Trump is once again proving he’s a consequential leader. He’s giving power back to parents and returning education to the people who know what’s best for their kids—not Washington bureaucrats.”
As a member of the House Education and Workforce Committee, Rep. Owens has been outspoken about the crisis facing American schools. From plummeting test scores to divisive curricula, he says decades of federal interference have hurt children and weakened the nation.
The Truth About Public Education’s Decline
“For the past 40 to 50 years, we’ve watched a slow-motion attack on our kids’ future,” Owens explained. “Instead of focusing on reading, writing, and math, classrooms have become battlegrounds for political agendas.”
He pointed to a dramatic decline in academic performance and a generation of students who are losing the ability to think critically and independently.

Owens: It’s Time to Hold Failing Educators Accountable
Rep. Owens didn’t mince words when talking about the need for change: “If a teacher can’t teach, it’s time they do something else. Our kids deserve better.”
He called on school systems to shift their focus back to life skills, moral character, and patriotism, saying it’s the only way to prepare the next generation to lead.
Trump’s Vision: Faith, Family, and Future
With the 2024 election approaching, Trump’s education plan is gaining strong support among conservatives, especially parents and grandparents who’ve watched America’s schools drift further from traditional values.
“We’re in a position now to make real change,” Owens said. “We can finally teach our kids to think, to serve, and to believe in the greatness of this country again.”
