Rep. Brad Wenstrup, R-Ohio, joined 'Fox & Friends' to discuss Weingarten's testimony on the impact of school closures and Dr. Fauci's take on the COVID-19 vaccine mandates.
"Any claim that the contact the AFT had with the CDC was unusual or inappropriate, particularly in reviewing its February 2021 Operational Strategy, is simply wrong," she says."We are asking you to help us help students recover from the effects of the pandemic—learning loss, trauma and sadness. The unrelenting attacks on teachers over pandemic-era school closings must end as well.
Weingarten and teachers unions as a whole have been targeted by critics for having had a hand in keeping schools closed throughout the pandemic. Infamously, the AFT and the National Education Association were discovered to have corresponded with the CDC in 2021 to make last-minute, which included a phased reopening approach for K-12 schools based on coronavirus cases in the area.
Randi Weingarten, President of the American Federation of Teachers, speaks during a March for Our Lives rally against gun violence on the National Mall June 11, 2022 in Washington, DC. "There’s no way that you’re going to have full-time schools for all the kids and all the teachers the way we used to have it,"At the time, Weingarten slammed the Trump administration’s guidelines to reopen schools by fall 2020 as"reckless,""callous" and"cruel.
While many school districts across the country, like in Florida, reopened for the fall of 2020, Weingarten was advocating for improving remote learning.
