The Senate is set to vote on Monday to confirm former wrestling executive Linda McMahon as the nation's education chief. If confirmed, McMahon would be tasked with leading a department that President Donald Trump has criticized and expressed intentions to dismantle.
McMahon, a billionaire and former CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment, is seen as an unconventional choice for the role. While she has limited experience in traditional education leadership, her supporters believe her background as a skilled executive will bring much-needed reform to the Education Department.
