CBSN
Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona is joining White House press secretary Jen Psaki for her daily briefing Wednesday, following an Education Department announcement that schools will receive $122 billion in COVID-19 relief.
President Joe Biden has announced that the administration's goal is for the majority of K-8 schools to return to in-person learning in the first 100 days of his term.Ashley White received her earliest combat action badge from the United States Army soon after the first lieutenant arrived in Afghanistan. The silver military award, recognizing soldiers who've been personally engaged by an attacker during conflict, was considered an achievement in and of itself as well as an affirming rite of passage for the newly deployed. White had earned it for using her own body to shield a group of civilian women and children from gunfire that broke out in the midst of her third mission in Kandahar province. All of them survived. She never mentioned the badge to anyone in her battalion.
