Shownotes Transcript

A new Congress will be sworn in on Sunday—the Democrats have a slimmer majority and Republicans have elected slightly more women.

And Trump's education secretary Betsy DeVos survived his full presidency, making herself out to be a champion of school choice and deregulation. Now, Biden's pick for the job is set to emphasize a new set of priorities.

In this episode: political reporter Danielle Kurtzlaben, White House correspondent Franco Ordoñez, congressional correspondent Kelsey Snell, and education reporter Elissa Nadworny.
