A video of Rep. Rosa DeLauro slamming President Donald Trump’s budget on education, saying it is “heartless” and “cruel,” has gone viral.
“Millions of kids around this country are going to suffer what has been done with a $9.2 billion cut to our education programs, which are supposed to serve our youngsters, make sure they have a good future and bright future,” the Connecticut Democrat said.
In the video above, Lindsey Burke, an education expert at The Heritage Foundation, goes through DeLauro’s quotes—and makes the case that she’s missing some key facts about education in the United States.
