SR 100 Mississippi Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Support devolution of power of U.S. Department of Education to the states.

This Senate resolution expresses support for transferring authority from the U.S. Department of Education to state governments and urges Congress to cooperate with that goal. The document cites the Tenth Amendment as constitutional basis for state control over education, which is not a federal responsibility. It references concerns about federal regulations and spending while highlighting declining student reading scores as context for why states should manage education policy. The resolution is non-binding and serves as a formal statement of position rather than creating new laws or funding changes.
