Trump taps Linda McMahon for education secretary post
President elect Donald Trump plans to nominate Linda McMahon transition co chair and former Small Business Administration leader as education secretary. The loyal GOP donor and ex-WWE executive advocates parental control over schooling, school choice, vouchers, and charter schools. Critics say the choice signals low priority for the department and raises questions about qualifications and process. NEA condemns the pick as a move against students. McMahon is married to Vince McMahon of the wrestling empire.
