Charterize, Privatize, Christianize: The DeVos-Backed Policies That "Gutted" Michigan Public Schools

Education Secretary Betsy DeVos is facing new criticism after she struggled in a recent "60 Minutes" interview to explain why schools in her home state of Michigan are faring poorly under the policies she has championed. DeVos is a billionaire Republican activist and the sister of Blackwater founder Erik Prince. She once served as chair of the American Federation for Children in Michigan, where she promoted school choice and worked to expand the state's use of private charter schools. Many educators say the results of DeVos's policies in Michigan have been disastrous. For more, we speak with Allie Gross, a reporter with the Detroit Free Press. She covered education in Michigan as a freelance reporter and was a Teach for America teacher in a Detroit charter school.
