Williams To Resign Jan. 1 As Leader Of TEA

9 years ago
Texas Commissioner of Education Michael Williams yesterday announced that he will resign from that position effective Jan. 1. He notified Gov. Greg Abbott of his decision in a letter.
 
Williams has led the Texas Education Agency since his 2012 appointment by then-Gov. Rick Perry. Before that, he had served as a member of the Texas Railroad Commission.
 
“While carrying out my responsibilities,” Williams said, “I have kept my house in Arlington and managed to maintain a long-distance partnership with my wife. But after more than 16 years of weekend commuting, I feel it is finally time to simply head home.”
