Washington,
DC-
U.S.
Senator
Tim
Scott
(R-SC)
issued
the
following
statement
after
meeting
with
Secretary
of
Education
nominee
Betsy
DeVos:
“It
was
a
pleasure
to
sit
down
with
Secretary
of
Education
nominee
Betsy
DeVos
this
week
to
hear
about
her
vision
on
improving
the
quality
of
our
K-12
education
system.
For
decades,
Betsy
has
been
a
voice
for
parents
who
simply
want
choices
when
it
comes
to
selecting
the
best
schools
for
their
children,
and
their
families.
She
has
been
a
steadfast
advocate
on
supporting
school
choice,
and
has
helped
push
forward
the
amazing
performance
we’ve
seen
come
from
Charter
Schools
and
the
D.C.
Opportunity
Scholarship
Programs.
Her
passion
for
helping
children
is
undeniable.
I
am
filled
with
incredible
hope
and
optimism
knowing
Betsy’s
leadership
will
help
drive
the
type
of
innovative
change
that
will
unleash
students’
potential
like
we
haven’t
seen
before.”
