Education Secretary Betsy DeVos wouldn’t commit to another four years as head of the agency when asked if she would serve if President Donald Trump were to win another term.
DeVos is one of the longest-serving members of Trump’s cabinet – one of the few cabinet secretaries to survive the administration since Trump’s 2016 election. But the president has taken little interest in education policy and has focused on immigration instead.The result has been little traction on her plan to encourage “school choice,” her signature issue.
During her surprisingly fiery speech on Monday, DeVos also blasted reporters for using her name as “clickbait.”“I don’t enjoy the publicity that comes with my position,” DeVos added. “I don’t love being up on stage or on any kind of platform. I’m an introvert.”
