DeVos’s Index Card Controversy: A Congressional Hearing Sparks Debate

In a recent congressional hearing, a sharp exchange between Congresswoman Hayes and Betsy DeVos, former Secretary of Education under the Trump administration, highlighted concerns about policy knowledge. Congresswoman Hayes questioned DeVos about the importance of Holocaust education. DeVos’s responses were hesitant, and she repeatedly referred to index cards for answers. This led to criticism regarding her preparedness and understanding of crucial educational issues. "There's no card for that," DeVos stated, when pressed on a key policy matter. This candid moment, captured on video, has sparked widespread debate on social media and raises questions about the qualifications and preparedness of political appointees. The video's impact underscores the importance of thorough vetting processes for such critical roles.
