PENNSYLVANIA – Pennsylvania Democratic Party Chairwoman Nancy Patton Mills released the following statement in response to Vice President Pence and Betsy DeVos’s Women for Trump event in Camp Hill, PA:
“Nothing said tonight changes the fact that the Trump-DeVos education agenda sells out Pennsylvania’s students for the benefit of special interests. The Trump administration continues to hand massive tax cuts to the wealthiest and well-connected, while going after vital resources for everyday students. Trump, Pence and DeVos have worked to gut public school funding, eliminate resources for low-income college students and have undermined programs that help survivors of sexual assault seek justice. Pennsylvania’s students and their families deserve better than Trump administration’s broken promises. Democrats will continue to fight for quality education for all children and work to make sure college is affordable for every American.”
