14th December 2015
For a Republican President nominally opposed to "Big Government", George W. Bush managed to radically increase the reach of the Federal Government in a number of areas, including his No Child Left Behind Act, which increased the influence of the federal government on education in the US. Technically, the 10th Amendment to the US Constitution reserves all powers not explicitly granted to federal government in Articles 1 to 3 of the Constitution to the states - one of these so-called reserved powers is to provide education.
