That question is very complicated.  Can you break it down a bit?

Some GOP politicians seem to have disdain for the Department of Education.

Do you have any particular example?  This is an area where it’s very hard to get a clear picture of the specific positions people are taking.

They have been trying to abolish it for years.

Do you have a specific example of what they are trying to do, or do you just have the impression that they are trying to abolish it?

It looks like a Congressman tried to abolish the Department of Education on February 1st, 2017.  And then on March 14th, 2017 another Congressman introduced a bill to do the same.  But both bills did not pass.  Do you want to talk more about what this means?

Oh, so do you mean the position to eliminate the department?  I thought you meant abolish it.
