[edit] Constitutional

Can someone explain how this is constitutional? I was under the impression that the 10th amendment limited federal powers to those explicitly laid out in the constitution. Stuff like mints, regulating currency, post offices, congress, etc... but doesnt mention regulating education which, according to the constitution, should be left up to the states, along with everything else not explicitly listed. So how can acts like this get passed that allow for federal department of education?

anybody know how this works? 72.174.2.252 10:13, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] other

i was wondering if anyone knew if the act had been renewed? the article said it expired in december of 2007... um... i've never done this before... i'm not quite sure what to do with it. i just wanted to call it to attention. Callvinny 03:29, 17 April 2007 (UTC)callvinny

You mean it said it expires in December 2006 and I switched it to Expired. Patranous

None of these reference links work. Someone needs to look up new references to back up these statements... Mysteryquest 18:25, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
