Trump Administration Launches National School Choice Option
- Details
- By Joshua Arnold - The Washington Stand

Private and homeschooled K-12 students may be eligible for federal scholarships as early as next year, according to rules proposed on October 1 by the U.S. Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The rules implement the “Education Freedom Tax Credit,” which “builds on” language in the 2025 Big Beautiful Bill, and they are scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2027.
“Education freedom is the key to unlocking opportunity and success for our next generation of students,” argued U.S. Education Secretary Linda McMahon. “The Education Freedom Tax Credit, the largest expansion of school choice in history, will supercharge those opportunities for millions of children” and ensure “that every child has access to the education they need, not one limited by ZIP code, family income, or government?'imposed barriers.”

Nebraska Volunteer Firefighter Denied Full-Time Job for Being Homeschooled

- By Quinn Delamater - The Washington Stand

The United States Armed Forces allows homeschoolers to enlist, but the city of Fremont, Nebraska appears to think they are unfit to join their local fire department. Now, the governor’s office is investigating.
Andrew Coates, a 22-year-old volunteer firefighter at Fremont Fire Department, hoped to turn his charity work into a full-time job. But his application was denied by the city, who claimed that since his high school diploma is from a homeschooling program, it was not from an accredited high school. When Coates applied in April 2026, there was no rule barring homeschoolers from becoming firefighters. After the closing date of the application, Coates was notified that he had been disqualified — the rules had apparently changed and he was no longer eligible. Last week, Fremont’s Civil Service Commission reviewed an appeal from Coates, before deciding that it didn’t have the authority to overturn the city’s employment policy.
Eagle Forum Applauds Department of Education’s Restoration of Title IX
- Details
- By Press Release
Eagle Forum applauds the U.S. Department of Education for formally rescinding the Biden-era Title IX policies and restoring sex-based protections. The move reinforces Title IX's original purpose: prohibiting sex discrimination in federally funded education and athletic programs.
“The Biden administration’s attempt to rewrite Title IX undermined the protections Congress established for women and girls,” stated Kris Ullman, President of Eagle Forum. “These policies threatened female athletes’ opportunities, put scholarships and athletic achievements at risk, and compromised women’s privacy in bathrooms, locker rooms, and other intimate spaces.”
Teachers’ Union Puts Children Last
- Details
- By Linda Harvey - Eagle Forum

Each summer, the National Education Association holds its annual meeting over the Fourth of July weekend with teacher delegates assembling from all over the country. Thousands of educators show up to propose issues for the union to adopt. Despite recent membership losses, NEA remains the nation’s largest union, a force that shapes public school education and a strong driver of left-wing politics. The group spends millions on political campaigns and issues, with 98% of that funding going to Democrats and left-wing causes.
In recent years, NEA proceedings have displayed an alarming radical trend. This year was no different, which is bad news for our children and for the nation as a whole. The union’s revolutionary tone continues to accelerate with accompanying paranoia to stamp out voices of reason.
