"youngest lawyer in New York at the time"

[edit]

He would have been 24 when he graduated law school; it's patently absurd to think that would make him the youngest lawyer in the state (I went to Yale Law with a guy who started at 20). But we're not doing original research here; more to the point, the two cited articles for this point say nothing of the sort. So if this page were openly editable, i would delete this clause. ~2026-20675-03 (talk) 20:15, 3 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

This cited source does indeed state that "at just 23, Lee Zeldin became the youngest attorney in New York at the time". A. Randomdude0000 (talk) 20:54, 3 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

More Condensed and Consistent Lede

[edit]

Today I condensed the lede more consistent to that of other cabinet secretary pages, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_S._Regan (Biden's EPA head); https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xavier_Becerra (former HHS head and now CA gubernational candidate). If we want to enlarge it, I think we should include detail about his education, early life, or tenure in the House, not give excessive detail about his primary election margins and his announcements of how he's rolling back the policy actions of his predecessor.
