Musk-led DOGE slashes education research contracts ‘conveniently’: Is the academic edge of America at risk?
President Trump has intensified efforts to cut federal spending, with education facing significant budget reductions. The Institute of Education Sciences (IES) lost 169 contracts, halting key research projects. Led by Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), the cuts aim to slash trillions in spending. These moves raise concerns about the future of U.S. education and its global standing.
