San Francisco school board recall day arrives with 3 board members' futures at stake
Fox News
San Francisco Unified School District board members Alison Collins, Gabriela Lopez and Faauuga Moliga face a recall election Tuesday.
"They need to go because they're playing politics," said Kit Lam, a recall organizer who gathered hundreds of signatures to qualify the recall, including from many first-time voters. "They don't care about our children's education."
The recall effort began more than a year ago while public schools remained closed even as San Francisco's private schools figured out how to reopen safely, and as city officials deemed it was safe for all kids to return to in-person classes. Last year, the city attorney sued the school board over its failure to reopen. The pandemic saw student enrollment drop and the district's budget shortfall grow -- to $125 million.
