Betsy DeVos, President-elect Donald Trump's pick to be the next secretary of Education. Since Donald Trump picked Michigan fundraiser and school voucher advocate Besty DeVos as his secretary of Education, Democrats and other political observers have examined her generous political contributions and any conflicts they might pose. Would DeVos have been chosen to be secretary of Education without those $200 million in donations, Sanders asked? Murphy asked whether she would support Trump if he were to end gun-free school zones. Murray described the behavior Trump had boasted about, and asked DeVos whether it would be considered assault if it occurred at a school.
