Betsy DeVos: “Congresswoman DeLauro, I believe we have a crisis of violence in our country, yes.”

I do find that strange. And in fact, in the last administration, there was $7 billion invested specifically into schools that were failing or deemed failing to improve them, and there was absolutely zero outcome from that investment.

By implementing year-round Pell, we do give non-traditional students... the flexibility to set their own pace for their education.

Ultimately, this Budget sharpens and hones the focus of our mission: serving students by meeting their needs.

There are way too many families that don't have that choice and we continue to consign them in too many cases to schools that do not work for them.
