Jahana Hayes, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Connecticut’s 5th district since 2019, recently addressed the public through a series of tweets concerning an executive order signed by President Trump. This order pertains to the dismantling of the Department of Education.
On March 20, 2025, Hayes expressed her stance on this development with a tweet: “My statement on the Executive Order signed by President Trump to dismantle the Department of Education.”
In another tweet posted later that day, she raised several critical questions regarding the implications of this executive action. Hayes questioned: “Trump just signed an executive order to dismantle the Dept of Education. What is the plan? For special education students, civil rights protections, funding for low income communities, Pell grants, student loans?”
Further engagement was planned as Hayes announced in a subsequent tweet that she would be discussing these issues live. On March 20th at 10:40 PM UTC, she informed her followers: “Tomorrow at 2PM ET the teachers are taking over the @WTFshow2025 . I am going LIVE on Instagram with my @EdWorkforceDems colleague @JohnMannionNY22 to break down what the Trump Executive Order dismantling the Department of Education means for you and your family.”
