.BetsyDeVos: Abolishing the Department of Education should be in GOP platform
Washington, D.C. — Former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos called for abolishing the department she once led, saying it was established as a"political payoff" to teachers unions by President Jimmy Carter and its elimination should be in the Republican Party platform.
"We have to stop doing what we've been doing and do something completely different," she continued before adding that she wanted to see"a return to states setting the policy" and providing parents with the"finances for their kids education." "I think education is going to be a very key issue in Michigan, and those two could not be more diametrically opposed on what they think the solutions are," the former secretary said."We've seen Gov. Whitmer veto and turn down every attempt to empower parents to give families choices and to really make a difference for kids in Michigan. On the other hand, Tudor is very supportive of those very issues.
