I have had it with schools not being open for some level of in-person and find it totally unacceptable that they won't try, especially now that the vaccine is available.[/quote]

Here's one.

<<<Senator (name),
I live at (address) and I am reaching out to you to BEG YOU to support the effort by Senators Petersen, Morrissey and Dunnavant to attach language to the budget that would require schools to be open for in person instruction in order to receive state funds.

Put bluntly, this is the biggest issue facing families in your district. FCPS has demonstrated a total lack of leadership and analysis paralysis. They will never commit to a plan until and unless they have an authority put pressure on them. I am not asking for them to eliminate the virtual school option for families who need that choice, but that you please acknowledge and understand that many children, including my own, are struggling in this virtual-only school.

This has to stop. We cannot continue to ask children to sacrifice their futures when we KNOW that mitigation strategies in schools work. We have seen it world-wide.

The state government got us into this mess when it closed schools "just for two weeks for a deep cleaning" in March. It has been over ten months. It has to stop. The state got us into this mess and it is time for the state to get us out of it.
Thank you. PLEASE support this language

Sincerely,
(your name)

The senators like you to put your address in there so they an prioritize constituent emails. Feel free to add in a personal anecdote or data or an article or whatever.[/quote]
