.@SenAlexander: You were a professor @ Emory Univ. School of Medicine, teaching resident doctors in training 2/3

DeVos hearing will follow Golden Rule—Obama ED nominees each had 1 round of questions, plus followup from Chairman and 1 other member

.@SenAlexander: I support her confirmation and look forward to working with her.

.@SenAlexander: We are fortunate that Betsy DeVos is the nominee for US Education Sec. b/c Betsy DeVos is & has been on our children’s side.

.@SenAlexander: Who's mainstream on charters? Pres. Bush, Clinton & Obama; the last 6 Education Sec., 43 states, Betsy DeVos—or her critics?

.@SenAlexander: President Clinton, Senator Clinton, President Bush, President Obama all supported charter schools

.@SenAlexander: I believe Mrs. DeVos is in the mainstream of public opinion on the best way to help children succeed

.@SenAlexander: She has dedicated her life to helping children, especially low-income children, have the opportunity to attend a good school

We’ll follow the golden rule—following same procedures we did for both of Pres Bush’s ed secretaries & both of Pres Obama’s ed secretaries

.@SenAlexander: Despite our differences, we have shown courtesy to one another and to our witnesses.

.@SenAlexander: HELP Committee knows how to resolve differences of opinion & get a result—eg., bill to #fixNCLB in 2015 & #Cures in 2016.
