Trump's former education secretary says she is open to returning to a previous post

Betsy DeVos says she is

Betsy DeVos, who served as education secretary under President Donald Trump, said she is "very open" to the possibility of returning to the role if Trump wins the presidency again in 2024.

In an interview with the Associated Press, DeVos said she is "proud" of her accomplishments at the Education Department and believes she can make a difference in the lives of students if she is given the opportunity to serve again.

DeVos has been a controversial figure in education policy

DeVos was a controversial figure during her time as education secretary. She was criticized by Democrats and some Republicans for her support of school choice and her opposition to teachers unions.

DeVos also faced criticism for her handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. She was accused of being slow to respond to the crisis and of providing inadequate support to schools and students.

DeVos to re-implement school choice programs if she returns

Despite the criticism, DeVos said she is confident that she can make a positive impact on education if she is given the opportunity to serve again.

She said she would re-implement some of the school choice programs that she championed during her time as education secretary.

DeVos said she would also work to reduce the federal government's role in education and give more power to states and local school districts.

DeVos's return to the Education Department is uncertain

It is unclear whether DeVos will have the opportunity to serve as education secretary again. Trump has not yet announced whether he will run for president in 2024, and it is possible that he could choose a different candidate for education secretary if he does run.

Even if Trump does choose DeVos, she would need to be confirmed by the Senate. Democrats currently control the Senate, and it is possible that they would not confirm DeVos.

Conclusion: DeVos's impact uncertain

DeVos's return to the Education Department would be a significant development in education policy.

She is a polarizing figure, but she is also a passionate advocate for school choice and reducing the federal government's role in education.

If she is given the opportunity to serve again, she would likely have a major impact on the future of education in the United States.
