"I'm heading to the floor to oppose @BetsyDeVosED's #2 at the Department of Education. He supports DeVos' extreme privatization agenda and puts ideology over students. --PM
It's clear from @BetsyDeVosED's actions, she needs a strong and independent #2 to put students first. Unfortunately, General Zais has made it clear he would be proud to be her right hand man.
Like @BetsyDeVosED, her nominee for 2nd in command supports an extreme privatization agenda, opposes the federal govt's role in education, and seems to lack and understanding of key issues in public schools."
