Ex-Education Secretary Betsy DeVos maxed out contributions to Michigan GOP Senate candidate Mike Rogers. In total, the DeVos family gave Rogers $46,200 in the third quarter, a significant sum this early in the race. In addition to Betsy DeVos, several other members of the DeVos family — who are highly influential in Michigan Republican politics — gave the maximum political contributions to Rogers. Betsy DeVos, a former Michigan Republican Party chair, served as Education secretary under President Donald Trump from February 2017 to January 2021. Last year, the former Education secretary attracted renewed attention after she remarked that the department she once led "should not exist" during a speech at the national Moms for Liberty summit.
