"From rampant antisemitism to plummeting test scores to the exploitation of women’s sports, it’s clear the current education bureaucracy is not putting students first," stated Rep. Tim Walberg.
Rep. Tim Walberg (R-Mich.), chair of the House Education and the Workforce Committee, cited "rampant" Jew-hatred as a major challenge in a statement after meeting on Tuesday with Linda McMahon, U.S. President Donald Trump's nominee for U.S. education secretary.
"As a successful business executive and the former head of the Small Business Administration, Linda McMahon is uniquely qualified to lead the Department of Education," Walberg stated.
"The status quo isn’t working," he added. "From rampant antisemitism to plummeting test scores to the exploitation of women's sports, it's clear the current education bureaucracy is not putting students first."
McMahon told Democratic senators that she agrees "wholeheartedly" with Trump's plan to abolish the U.S. Department of Education, The Hill reported on Tuesday.
