Please help me understand!
The U.S. Senate just confirmed 51 – 50 the nominee Betsy DeVos for the position of Secretary of Education.
DeVos appears to have little knowledge of our educational system. She has never taught, has no education in “education” and is in fact an outspoken critic of the very system and institution she is now assigned to lead and run.
I understand that not everything our president does is going to be popular with everyone. But DeVos for this position is just so very wrong. How can 50 senators not recognize that? Are all 50 senators willing to sacrifice the education of an entire generation of children just to gain political favors?
It is baffling to me.
Can somebody, please, explain to me why Betsy DeVos should be Secretary of Education?
Please!
