One Vote Needed by Monday to block Betsy DeVos’s Confirmation as Secretary of Education!!

Two Republican Senators have announced they will vote “No” to Betsy DeVos’s confirmation on Monday, making the current vote 50 yesses to 50 no’s. Unfortuntaely, the deciding vote in a tie goes to the Vice-President, which means we need 1 more Republican to vote no to stop this confirmation.
