Schumer alleges Trump likely broke the law in shutting federal School Safety Board convened to help prevent school shootings

amNewYork Metro Posted on January 27, 2025

President Trump, amid his flurry of executive orders last week upon retaking office, quietly shut down the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) School Safety Board, a panel established in the wake of the 2018 Parkland school shooting that left 17 students and staff dead.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York blasted the decision Sunday as a likely violation of the law. He pointed out that the board was made permanent through the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, passed in 2022.
