"Gov.-elect Lee names Tennessee voucher advocate as his policy director"



Link to story from chalkbeat.org:




From the article:


“The former Tennessee director of the pro-voucher group American Federation for Children will serve as policy director in Gov.-elect Bill Lee’s administration.

The incoming Republican governor named Tony Niknejad to one of a handful of senior staff positions on Tuesday as he announced his first round of key appointments. Niknejad previously served as policy director of Lee’s campaign.

His new status in Lee’s administration sends a clear message that the next governor is serious about his campaign pledge to give parents more choices when it comes to educating their children.”
