Although many of the protests against coronavirus "lockdowns" claim to be grass-roots efforts, organizers of an attention-getting protest in Michigan have received substantial financial support from the DeVos family. The April 15 protest at Michigan's Capitol was co-organized by the Michigan Freedom Fund. The state's searchable database of political contributions reports that the group received $250,000 in March donations from members of the DeVos family.
Betsy DeVos, current U.S. Secretary of Education, is married to Dick DeVos, who is currently President of Windquest Group. He is identified as a Windquest executive in the state filings, along with several other family members who often join together to support recipients.
