The resolution emphasizes the significant role of the United States Department of Education in managing federal funding for public education, which includes billions of dollars distributed to states. It highlights the current trend of shifting governance back to the states and advocates for reducing federal regulations in favor of increased state oversight. The resolution specifically calls for the continuation of pass-through funding, such as that provided under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and Title I, while also urging the Department of Education to distribute all other federal education funds as block grants to the State of Kansas. This approach is intended to allow Kansas to allocate funds more effectively to areas of education that require improvement.

Furthermore, the resolution expresses the desire for federal funding to be provided without stringent requirements, enabling the state to utilize the funds in a manner that best serves its educational needs. The Kansas Legislature plans to communicate this resolution to key federal officials, including President Donald J. Trump and the Secretary of Education, Linda McMahon, as well as the Kansas congressional delegation, to advocate for these changes in federal education funding policy.
