Democrats Respond to Rounds and Thune Voting to Confirm DeVos


Democrats Respond to Rounds and Thune Voting to Confirm DeVos

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – The South Dakota Democratic Party released the following statement in response to Senators Mike Rounds and John Thune voting to confirm the unqualified and unfit Betsy DeVos as Education Secretary:

“Betsy DeVos is incredibly unqualified to be Education Secretary. But because of her and her family’s millions of dollars in donations to Republican Senators – including $46,800 to Sen. Rounds and $17,500 to Sen. Thune – Senators Rounds and Thune and other Washington Republicans overlooked her serious shortcomings and voted to confirm her. With today’s vote, Senators Rounds and Thune put big-money interests and party loyalty above South Dakota students, teachers, and schools, and the people of South Dakota won’t forget it.”
