U.S. Department of Education Abandons Claims Alaska’s Education Funding Formula Too Generous to Rural Schools

< 1 min read

Last week the U.S. Department of Education (ED) notified Alaska Education Commissioner Dr. Deena Bishop that it is dropping its meritless claims against Alaska pertaining to the Maintenance of Equity (MOEquity).

“Today marks the end of a saga the Biden-Harris administration started that was a tremendous waste of time and resources. From the very beginning, it was clear that the U.S. Department of Education’s allegations were meritless. Alaska was not going to back down because we knew we were right,” said Governor Mike Dunleavy. “On the bright side, this saga is a wonderful case study of the U.S. Department of Education’s abuse of power and serves as further evidence for why I support the concept of eliminating it.”
