Judge Rejects Betsy DeVos Plan To Send Federal Funds To Private Schools


"Judge Rothstein seems to agree. The statute written by Congress “could hardly be less ambiguous.” The law “unequivocally and plainly instructed” the department to distribute money according to a “simple, familiar and time-tested formula.” The argument about the slightly longer phrase “is, generously put, a stretch; its adoption would render all but the most laconic Congressional directives ambiguous.” Rothstein devotes five pages to bluntly crushing the various “ambiguity” arguments, but her most scathing line is this one:

The Department’s convoluted reading essentially creates an ambiguity to justify resolving it, thereby thwarting Congress’s obvious intent."



Ole Betsy. Trying to funnel that Uncle Sugar money to the private schools SHE likes.

Trump's deep state cabinet appointments are/have been horrible for America. DeVos is probably the least qualified of them all. She's been gawdawful in her position.

I just wish more of her schemes had been tossed out by the courts. The woman has done a lot of damage to the public schools she is supported to be in charge of protecting and enhancing.
