Education Secretary Betsy DeVos’s security detail, one of the most extensive in the Trump administration, will cost U.S. taxpayers nearly $20 million through the fall of 2019.

 

DeVos began to receive nonstop security from the U.S. Marshals Service immediately after her Senate confirmation in February 2017. No other Cabinet member has been provided an armed detail like the one assigned to the education secretary, at a cost of $19.8 million, according to figures provided by the Marshals Service to NBC News.
