US Secretary of Education Betsy Devos wants to defund the Special Olympics from the Department of Education’s proposed budget. Let’s make sure that never happens.
Why is this important?
On Tuesday, Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos met with the members of the House subcommittee to defend her department’s proposed budget for the next fiscal year. The proposal involves eliminating the entire $17.6 million that the federal government contributes to the Special Olympics. This will affect over 272,000 kids nationwide with special needs.
