Education Secretary Betsy DeVos testifies on Capitol Hill on May 24 about the department’s proposed 2018 budget. (Alex Wong/Getty Images)You might think that it would be a matter of course for the education secretary to provide direct answers to direct questions about education or education policy. I asked the Education Department whether DeVos believed the climate is changing and human activity has played a role and received no answer. My Post colleague Emma Brown asked DeVos the same thing to DeVos on Friday, when the education secretary visited a D.C. charter school. Asked DeVos whether she believes human activity has caused climate change.
