From Lily Eskelsen Garcia, NEA President

The Resistance to the Trump De-Vos agenda is here to stay

Dear Activist,
Today, I watched as the Vice President broke a tie vote to confirm Betsy DeVos as Secretary of Education, ignoring the voices of over a million Americans. I am not deterred because of what we accomplished together.

Over 1.1 million emails, 80,000+ phone calls, thunderous rallies, countless creative actions… No other nominee has garnered the level of bipartisan public opposition as Betsy DeVos, and that’s thanks to you.

I’ve recorded a message to express my gratitude for your record-breaking support for our students and public schools.

Betsy DeVos may be education secretary, but she has no mandate. In fact, she has the opposite because of you.

You’ll be hearing from me again soon. For now, just thank you for taking action.

Gracias, 
– Lily
