Education Department officials declined requests for information about the deployment of marshals or the current tasks of the Secretary's displaced security team normally assigned to her.
Many of those security personnel are former Secret Service agents who have worked at the department for many years. Regarding the withdrawal of the department's team, former Education Secretary Arne Duncan said, "That's a waste of taxpayer money.

The Department of Education then promoted her Fox News interview. During the coronavirus pandemic , DeVos directed millions of dollars of coronavirus relief funds from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act intended for public schools and colleges, to private and religious schools.

DeVos was appointed by President George W. Bush to the board of directors of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in , and served until While she was on the board, she and her husband funded a center to teach arts managers and boards of directors how to fundraise and manage their cultural institutions.
After the announcement of the DeVoses' gift to the Kennedy Center, DeVos explained that she had been persuaded by Kennedy Center official Michael Kaiser 's observation that millions of dollars are invested "in the arts, and training artists", but not in "training the leaders who hire the artists and run the organizations".

She and her husband worked for the successful passage of Michigan's first charter-school bill in , [23] and for the unsuccessful effort in to amend Michigan's constitution to allow tax-credit scholarships or vouchers.
DeVos has been an advocate for the Detroit charter school system. Douglas N. Harris, professor of economics at Tulane University , wrote in a The New York Times op-ed that DeVos was partly responsible for "what even charter advocates acknowledge is the biggest school reform disaster in the country".
In the National Assessment of Educational Progress , Detroit had the lowest reading and mathematics scores "by far" over any city participating in the evaluation.
According to Harris, she designed a system with no oversight in which schools that do poorly can continue to enroll students.
Ramesh Ponnuru of National Review argued that Harris overstates the failure of charter schools in Detroit.
According to Ponnuru, the study referenced by Harris, the National Assessment of Educational Progress, did "not sound nearly as helpful to Harris's case as he suggests".
Ponnuru pointed out that the study says "some 47 percent of charter schools in Detroit significantly outperform[ed] traditional public schools in reading and 49 percent of charters significantly outperforming traditionals on math.
Only one percent of charters were significantly outperformed by traditional public schools in reading and only 7 percent on math. Greene , professor of education policy at the University of Arkansas , argued that Harris's The New York Times article misled readers on the evidence and "falsely claimed that Detroit has failed to close failing charter schools", noting that Detroit has closed more charters than Louisiana, a state Harris cites as a model for charter school legislation.
In a written response to a question about charter school performance posed during DeVos's confirmation hearing by Senator Patty Murray D-WA , asking "why do you think their performance is so poor?
These examples were contested by Columbia University professor Aaron Pallas and Education Week reporter Ben Herold on the basis that the actual graduation rates were roughly only half as large as DeVos had stated.
The DeVos family is one of Michigan's wealthiest. Dick DeVos is a major donor to conservative political campaigns and social causes, [] [] [] and was the Republican nominee for Governor of Michigan.

The long charge sheet against DeVos also includes the withdrawal of federal guidance, developed under the Obama administration, that spelled out protections for transgender students under title IX of the Education Amendments Act of DeVos has also proposed a requirement that colleges allow cross-examination of sexual assault and harassment accusers.
Activists argue this would discourage victims from coming forward. Former vice-president Joe Biden has promised to reverse the guidance if he becomes president.
And when it comes to higher education, she really has betrayed the aspirations of kids who need and have student loans in order to make their aspirations real in postsecondary education.
But she has been sharply criticised by Democratic candidates, including moderates. Pete Buttigieg has vowed that, should he reach the White House, he would appoint a secretary who actually believes in public education.
Senator Amy Klobuchar has promised to fire DeVos immediately. John Delaney, the first Democrat to jump into the race, joined the condemnation.
