PORTSMOUTH, N.H. — Presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren sided with fellow White House hopeful Bernie Sanders Saturday on the need to eliminate for-profit charter schools.
“Yeah, I think it’s a real problem right now,” the senator from Massachusetts told reporters at the Rockingham County Democrats’ clambake in Portsmouth, N.H., taking the opportunity to discuss Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, a charter school advocate. “And what Betsy DeVos has done to our public education really undermines the best opportunities for our kids. I think public tax dollars should stay in our public schools,” the former public school teacher said.
