Gov. Larry Hogan: Open the damn schools – Biden must send this message loud and clear
Fox News
In the months since the summer, evidence that the costs of keeping students out of school far exceed any potential risk of reopening safety has become incontrovertible.
Leadership is about far more than the nuts and bolts of policy-making. It's also about communicating clearly, honestly, and with genuine empathy. Perhaps nowhere has this been more clear than the battle to get our schools opened safely. Unfortunately, the messaging from the federal government has been haphazard and downright unhelpful for this cause. Last August, the state of Maryland authorized every county school district to open for in-person instruction after submitting detailed plans for safe and hybrid learning. However, many counties – under pressure from the teachers unions – chose not to follow state guidelines.More Related News
