U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, ranking member of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee, commented on President Trump’s recent nomination of Linda McMahon for Secretary of the U.S. Department of Education.

Senator Cassidy expressed support for the nomination, emphasizing the importance of parental choice in education. “I agree with President Trump’s statement that we need someone who is going to focus on parental choice in children’s education,” he stated.

Cassidy also highlighted McMahon’s prior experience leading the Small Business Administration as beneficial for managing another government agency. “Linda McMahon’s experience running the Small Business Administration can obviously help in running another agency,” he added. The senator looks forward to meeting with her soon.
