Scalise rips Biden school-reopening goal: 'You're afraid of standing up to the teachers union'
Fox News
Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., said President Biden's goal to open the majority of K-8 schools by April 30 falls way short of what school children need, and the Republican Whip urged Biden to choose science over teacher unions.
"Either you are going commit to opening up all schools safely, or you're going to be leaving millions of kids behind for no reason other than you're afraid of standing up to the teachers unions. Because the science is very clear: You can open up every school safely today and the money is there to do it," Scalise told Fox News. "The only thing lacking by some of these leaders, including the president, is the will to get kids back in the classroom now."More Related News
