Oppose Betsy DeVos, reactionary heiress and enemy of public schools, as Education Secretary

At the Women's March on Washington on Saturday, filmmaker Michael Moore made a good, concrete suggestion about regularly calling your Senators and Representative regarding Trump mischief.   As a start, he proposes targeting Senators to oppose the awful Betsy DeVos as Education Secretary (see his post for the phone number and other info).  There's some good reasons for opposing DeVos here, and it also includes direct phone numbers of Senators on the relevant committee; I've copied and pasted those below, for your convenience.  If you live in Alaska, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Georgia, Maine, Louisiana, Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, Kansas, or Wyoming, it's particulary important to call, so that your Republican Senator knows that you are unhappy with Ms. DeVos.  (Democratic Senators should hear from constituents too, so they know not to roll over.)  I suggest you keep the message short and simple:   "President Trump's nominee has a long record of hostility to public education.  Public education has served me and my family well, I want an Education Secretary who supports it wholeheartedly.  I expect my Senator to oppose this unqualified nominee."

Below is the list of all Senators on the Senate HELP Committee, who heard testimony from Secretary of Education nominee Betsy DeVos.  The first 12 are the Republicans, the rest (from Sen. Murray onward) are Democrats.
