Trump steps up a campaign against teaching English to immigrant kids

One year ago, the Trump administration gutted the Education Department’s Office of English Language Acquisition, which is supposed to help about 5 million students in public schools “attain English proficiency and achieve academic success.” By “gutted,” I mean cut 14 of the 15 staff positions in that office. Now the department has given Congress official notice that it plans to dissolve the office entirely.
