President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for secretary of education, Linda McMahon, picked up a key endorsement in her confirmation bid as leading parental rights organization Parents Defending Education Action threw its support behind the WWE mogul.

The group announced its endorsement in a letter to Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Chairman Bill Cassidy (R-MD) and ranking member Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). Parents Defending Education Action slammed the Biden Department of Education for its focus on left-wing activism instead of balanced education amid the decline in student performance.
