Good. He's governing an entire (large) state. There are other issues besides this one. I hope he doesn't insert the emergency clause.
Our only hope is the emergency clause, for goodness sake. At least in Arlington. Seeing as our Superintendent and SB can't get their act together. For those that are not supportive, luckily they have an option to remain remote. Enough already.
Duran said we are going back 5 days in the fall. Schools are starting to plan for it too. Duran has always been great about communicating and has been following through on what he’s said- even if you didn’t agree with his plans.

He signed it, right?? Just not the emergency clause? So VA is mandated to OFFER 5-days of in person instruction in the fall?

He signed it today at the last minute. https://www.governor.virginia.gov/newsroom/all-releases/2021/march/headline-894142-en.html?fbclid=IwAR1qugmA5zelM18yEJZ6gFqXFj4XlTgBwpNdIfvnHn-PozbH2qQDFk1GUkQ
No emergency clause, so it will take effect 7/1. Too late for this school year, sadly. I’m a little nervous if it will actually do anything, but I suppose it’s better than nothing.

Call him. Call your delegate. Call your state senator. Step up the pressure.

Ah yes, because education of children doesn't matter. Go back to your cave.

If he is going to take action, his deadline is 11:59 p.m. on 3/31.
If he does nothing, it still becomes law (no pocket veto in VA). However, it sends a signal that his attorney general/the VDOE may not be enforcing it very strongly. That would leave individual parents having to sue to get it complied with. Much better if he just signs the danged thing.
So ask him to! Copied from the FCPS forum, here are actions to take:
1) call 804-786-2211 and leave a message and/or
2) submit a comment here: https://www.governor.virginia.gov/constituent-services/communicating-with-the-governors-office/ and/or
3) contact your delegate and state senator and ask him or her to encourage the governor to sign it: https://whosmy.virginiageneralassembly.gov (after all, it passed by wide margins and with broad bipartisan support)

If he doesn’t sign it, it sends a signal to districts that the state will not go after districts who don’t comply. That means parents will have to sue to get districts to do it.

he doesn't actually need to sign it. As long as he doesn't veto it, it becomes law

I’ve lost all faith that aps will actually get kids back in seats 5x/week this fall, since Loft said that the reduced 3ft distancing requirement won’t actually increase capacity much.
What’s the hope that Northam actually signs SB1303?
