with betsy devos there. reporter: i wouldn t be surprised if that happened, craig. he will certainly get some questions about the historic tie-breaking vote we saw today on the senate floor with vice president mike pence breaking that 50-50 margin that you saw in order to confirm betsy devos. no reaction yet from the white house, but necessity are pointing us to a tweet from the vice president, who wrote today, today s vote to confirm education secretary @betsydevos was a chance for every child to have a world class education. now it shifts to jeff sessions. i was in the roosevelt with him earlier today when he was meeting with various sheriffs from all across the country. and he called ol congress to confirm senator sessions to the post of attorney general. stressed the need for that position as he face this is tough fight over the travel ban he s trying to instate. i asked him how far he was
