I strongly urge you to oppose Linda McMahon's nomination as secretary of education. McMahon has no significant experience in public education and lacks understanding of what students need to thrive. As a billionaire, she is likely to prioritize privatization efforts like voucher programs that divert funds away from public schools where 90% of students are enrolled. The Department of Education plays a crucial role in supporting low-income students, reducing class sizes, and providing resources for students with disabilities. Confirming McMahon would undermine these efforts and dismantle the department itself. We cannot entrust our children's future to someone who fails to value public education. Please reject McMahon's nomination and appoint a qualified candidate truly committed to advocating for and improving public schools.
