‘Politicians who don’t know what they’re doing should be asking us’: Teachers express outrage as President Trump pressures schools to reopen by fall

For kids wellbeing, they need to go back to school. Students and parents can have the option to opt for online or in person classes but they must have the OPTION. The mortality rate is, right now, at a level that people don’t talk about, but it’s down tenfold.

Someone ANYONE please tell me why in the f*k trump is pushing so hard for kids to go back to school? Is it funding? It has to be money, I know that tuition and public school attendance has a lot to do with it but is it kids/school, kids/daycare then parents/work?

DandyThedandy1 You are exactly right.

Zero fatalities among young children. Is the nation going to live in fear now, it’s lived through far worse diseases without taking these insane extreme measures. Who is this Garcia women some who wants kids to learn a false twisted version of our history to make them hate it.

CDC director warns keeping schools closed poses greater health threat to children than reopening

Anyone who has ever cleaned a coffee table, walls, fridge door, bathroom (all surfaces) knows you can't police the little hygiene/ incubation repeat offenders. They're kids. My district has been feeding kids all summer. 3 meals a day. I'm sure we don't have budget for germ patrol

Where is Melissa Harris-Perry?

Teacher's unions are dictating what is to be done and it's not in the best interest of the kids, it's all politics

Agree. Lily is 100% right all the way.

Stone’s democrat death sentence

Dems are turning USA into Venezuela. There are 1000s dying across the USA from cardiac events, missed cancer treatments, suicides, neglect. Hospitals are nearly empty, 36+ million out of work, generations being destroyed. The Dem govs are destroying businesses. Open the economy.

They know what they are asking! They don't care about the death and illness. They care about getting things back to appearing normal at any cost, because they believe that is how they can win reelection. RepublicansAreKillingUs

Political folks only care about their paycheck.

If your so worried just dont send your kids to school...

Imo, they should create a commission on Education in Covid. They would bring teachers and health experts together, they would discuss and determine the parameters for safety, Funding needed, and they would mobilize a Jobs initiative for added teachers and support staff.

BetsyDeVosED GovRonDeSantis realDonaldTrump ⬆️As a parent, I will not sacrifice my child for anyone. The reason schools are back in session in other countries is because leaders took charge, did mass testing, took necessary precautions before opening anything back up.

I think Lily_NEA needs 2 sign up BetsyDeVosED 2 teach. 🤔She was a teacher, wasn't she? And, while U R at it, get the GOP parents who are teachers..to teach their kids in these petri dishes. COVID19 NSTA CDCDirector why does Betsy say not to follow CDC guidelines?🤔

And they just really don’t care either! VoteOutTheGOPCowards

Completely true

Yup instead of listening they put there own interest first. Sad

💥As the socialist continue their 'fear' campaign children are the safest with this virus the virus 's dangerous to the elderly most people that test positive have no symptoms no treatments and the death rate in most states are extremely low especially Florida!!💥

cc: .JohnCornyn supporters. (why? because he still thinks maybe kids can't transmit COVID)

Trump never went to class. How the hell would he know?

But by all means clear out the jail and prisons

Unfortunately, the well being of teachers does not appear to be even a remote consideration for our federal government and at least 25 governors. Teachers may have to refuse to work in unsafe conditions to get the accommodations they may need.

Reopen ....our neural models say this wave will end by Sept 8 BUT this virus is here to stay and is a matter of managemnt containment. Parents have alternative of home schooling if they fear for child's safety
