The USPIE Research Committee did the background work to develop the Blueprint to Close the Federal Department of Education found at USPIE.org. The committee provides support to state chapters, watching for good legislation that can be shared and problematic legislation that might spread to other states. They also work with the Marketing Committee and Leadership Team to research and draft USPIE Position papers. All Committee efforts are aligned with achieving USPIE’s mission of abolishing the U.S. Department of Education and ending all federal education mandates.
