On today's episode of The Narrative, Former US Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, CCV President Aaron Baer, and Policy Director David Mahan break down the Biden administration's attempt to force women out of sports, what would happen if we shut down the US Department of Education, and the three areas of opportunity and growth for education with this fall's election.

Before the conversation, Aaron and David discuss the Our Bodies, Our Sports bus tour, several key bills that have stalled at the Statehouse, the Southern Baptist Convention's new resolution against in vitro fertilization (IVF), and CCV's inaugural annual conference, The Essential Summit, featuring Dr. Ben Carson, The Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon, and Hillsdale President Larry Arnn.

More about Sec. Betsy DeVos

Betsy DeVos is the nation’s leading advocate for the educational freedom of all students, having served as the 11th U.S. Secretary of Education from 2017 to 2021. For more than three decades, she has tirelessly pursued public policy reforms that get government out of the way and allow all students the freedom, flexibility, resources and support they need to choose where, when and how they learn.

Her advocacy has helped create new educational choices for K-12 students in more than 25 states and the District of Columbia and expanded post-high school education options for students of all ages. Betsy is a graduate of Calvin College and is married to entrepreneur, philanthropist and community activist Dick DeVos. Together, they have four children and thirteen grandchildren.
