The National Consult/Politico online poll, which dealt with the popularity of President Donald Trump’s Cabinet members and various policy and political issues, found that a higher percentage of those polled gave DeVos a “very unfavorable” rating than any other Cabinet member included in the poll.
DeVos, a longtime champion of school choice, became a lightning rod for controversy during and after her January confirmation hearing before the Senate education committee. She has also drawn criticism for a number of her remarks, including her comments on the role of historically black colleges and universities.
