Betsy DeVos, U.S. Ed Secretary nominee was barely voted out of the H.E.L.P. Committee 12-11 after Chair Lamar Alexander bent the rules, silenced debate, and forced the committee to vote twice on Tuesday (1.31.17) to secure a favorable outcome for DeVos.
It was an empty victory for Chair Alexander as GOP Sens. Susan Collins (Maine) and Lisa Murkowski declared the next day (2.1.17) on the on the Senate floor that they would oppose Betsy DeVos.
The full Senate vote on Betsy DeVos has been pushed back to Tuesday, February 7th!
