Story
Trump to Appoint Ex-WWE CEO Linda McMahon as Last Education Secretary
Nov 19, 2024, 11:15 PM
President-elect Donald Trump is expected to name Linda McMahon as Secretary of Education. McMahon, a co-chair of Trump's transition team, previously served as head of the Small Business Administration during Trump's first term and is the former CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment. She also served on the Connecticut Board of Education for a year. The decision follows the appointment of Howard Lutnick as Commerce Secretary, a role McMahon had sought. McMahon is known for her support of school choice; Republicans intend for her to lead efforts to dismantle the Department of Education and return control of education to the states. She is expected to be the last Secretary of Education.
