Sen. Lamar Alexander Delays Vote on Betsy Devos

Quote:
The Office of Government Ethics released its report for DeVos after her hearing last Tuesday. One of the concerns reported by the NYT is that while DeVos said she had stepped down from the board of Neurocore, a Michigan company that operates biofeedback “brain performance centers” that offer alternative treatment for children and adults with diagnoses of attention deficit disorder and autism, she says she will still keep her financial interest in the company, valued at between $5 million to $25 million.
