Education Secretary Betsy DeVos is in a wheelchair as she recovers from a recent bicycle accident that broke her pelvis and hip socket.

 

DeVos was in a wheelchair Thursday during her first public appearance since the accident, Politico reported. She was speaking at an entrepreneurship event in Washington.

 

โ€œVery painful,โ€ she said of her injuries. โ€œBut it will heal. I just have to stay off of it for quite a few weeks, so Iโ€™m getting around with other means.โ€

 

Education Press Secretary Liz Hill said in a statement to The Hill on Thursday that the accident happened over the holidays.

 

DeVos is back in the office full-time and "doing well," Hill said.

 

The Trump Cabinet member underwent surgery earlier this month to repair the broken bone.
