Betsy DeVos


As a former teacher, I am appalled that any U.S. Senator would vote for an unqualified person, like Betsy DeVos, to lead the U.S. Department of Education. She knows nothing about education, testing, child development, child psychology, etc. Her answers during the hearing displayed her lack of knowledge on many issues. Just as you wouldn't want someone without a specialized education and training to do your brain surgery, you do not want someone like Betsy DeVos to set policy for education, schools, and instructional materials.

Betsy DeVos is inexperienced in education.  Her qualifications appear to be that she gave massive amounts of campaign contributions to Trump and Republicans. Stand with me and oppose her nomination.
