DeVos advances plan to direct coronavirus funds to private schools

The Republican cabinet secretary isn't just a passive advocate of directing public funds away from public schools. The New York Times reported two weeks ago that DeVos hoped to exploit the $2 trillion coronavirus aid package to "throw a lifeline" to the private schools she's long championed, despite the fact that the law intended those funds to primarily benefit public schools and colleges.

Public funds should not be going to private schools, period.

This is literally stealing from the poor, to give to the rich. It's sickening and disturbing.
