Tuesday, May 23, 2017

 U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) released a statement following a speech by Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos outlining a proposal to make massive cuts to public education:

 

“Parents’ worst fears were realized today when Secretary Betsy DeVos outlined the Trump Administration’s plan to shift billions of dollars away from our nation’s public schools.  These policies have already failed children and families in Michigan and now Secretary DeVos wants to implement them nationwide.  Instead of working cooperatively to improve our schools, this administration is playing politics with the future of our children.”
