U.S. Vice President Mike Pence swore in Betsy DeVos as U.S. secretary of education on Tuesday after casting the tie-breaking Senate vote to confirm President Donald Trump's controversial nominee. It was the first time in American history that a vice president had been needed to get a Cabinet pick approved.
DeVos pledged at her swearing-in to "support and defend the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic." In the words of her official vow, she also pledged to "well and faithfully" discharge the duties of her office.
The ceremony took place quickly and without fanfare, except for the whirring and clicking of cameras and other media equipment. After the short ceremony was over, a small audience of family and friends burst into polite applause.
Earlier in the day, two Republicans voted with a united Democratic caucus in opposition to DeVos. The result was a 50-50 split before Pence cast the deciding vote, as the Constitution mandates when the chamber is evenly divided.
美国副总统彭斯主持了教育部长贝齐·德沃斯的宣誓就职仪式。美国国会参议院星期二在彭斯投下打破平衡的一票后，批准了川普总统这位极具争议的教育部长人选。这是美国历史上第一次在审批内阁人选时需要副总统投出的一票。
德沃斯星期二晚上宣誓时说，她将“支持和捍卫美国对抗所有敌人，无论来自国外还是国内”。她在官方誓词中说，她将保证“好好地、忠实地”履行她的职责。
宣誓就职仪式快速完毕，没有喧闹，只有照相机的快门声和其他媒体设备的响声。在短暂的仪式结束后，一小群旁观的家人和朋友发出礼貌的掌声。
星期二早些时候，两名参议院共和党人投票站在了团结一致反对德沃斯任命的民主党人一边，导致支持和反对票数为50-50，副总统彭斯按宪法规定在参议院各执一词时投出了决定性一票。
