Where readers stand Readers: no picks yet What we know Education Secretary Linda McMahon is planning to spend about $43,000 on new office furniture, according to records reviewed by The New York Times. McMahon's office told Congress the current furniture is worn out and cannot be integrated into the agency's new office space. The department is relocating from its headquarters in the Lyndon B. Johnson building to a smaller building in downtown Washington, D.C. McMahon has said the relocation will save about $5 million in annual operating costs. McMahon is seeking to permanently shut down the Department of Education. Summarised from 3 reports across 2 perspectives.
