Linda McMahon, a longtime CEO at World Wrestling Entertainment who worked during the first Trump administration, was selected by President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday to head the Education Department.
McMahon would be in charge of a department that Trump claimed he intended to “get rid” of as it presently stands and let each state “handle education” on its own, if the Senate confirms her.
Trump said in a statement that characterized McMahon as a “fierce advocate for Parents’ Rights” that.
“As Secretary of Education, Linda will fight tirelessly to expand ‘Choice’ to every State in America, and empower parents to make the best education decisions for their families.”
On February 23, 2018, Linda McMahon, the Small Business Administration’s then-administrator, visits the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in National Harbour, Maryland.
