The resolution emphasizes the significant role of the United States Department of Education in managing federal funding for public education, which includes both pass-through funding and grants that impose various compliance requirements on states and school districts. It advocates for a shift in governance, suggesting that federal oversight should be reduced in favor of increased state control over education funding. The resolution specifically calls for the use of block grants, which would allow the State of Kansas to allocate federal funds more effectively to areas of education that require improvement.

Furthermore, the Kansas Legislature urges the United States Department of Education to continue providing certain federal funds as pass-through funding while requesting that all other federal education funding be distributed as block grants without stipulations on their use. The resolution concludes with a directive for the Secretary of State to send copies of the resolution to key federal officials, including the President and the Secretary of Education, as well as members of the Kansas congressional delegation.
