Some Philadelphia teachers and lawmakers say they're worried about new Education Secretary Linda McMahon — and her and President Trump's plans for the U.S. Education Department.

They say budget cuts will be felt by students nationwide, including in our region.

Opponents rallied Tuesday morning at Widener Memorial School at Broad Street and Olney Avenue. More than a dozen people spoke about the Trump administration's proposed cuts at the event, part of a National Protect Our Kids Day of Action.
