Because there's no way he'll actually win but it's good for Bowser to feel some competition

Same.

But schools are not going to close for COVID in the future, so how does this factor into other education decisions? No snark, honest question from a parent who is still weighing the candidates.

You know, I would have thought that starting in maybe about November, 2021, that schools weren't going to close again for covid "in the future." That was AFTER there was great hubbaloo about even opening in Fall, 2021. THEN, Robert White tried to introduce a bill that would cause school closures repeatedly in 2022. At that point, I realized that all bets are off. If someone has the stupidity to propose that school closures can KEEP happening after all we've learned about their major detriments to children and working families (and not see that they do absolutely zilch to prevent community spread), then that's not a person that I want anywhere near power. That person has no ability to make decisions that serve his constituents.

Not to mention close them repeatedly after all kids have access to the vaccine, and 1.75 yrs of the pandemic gone with zero kids dying of covid in DC! Utter madness.

There are constant battles on what's best for the teachers union vs. what's best for students. For example, R. White and Janeese George are advocating to eliminate standardized testing for students. Without this, we can't measure academic progress. The real reason they want to eliminate testing is so schools won't have the evidence for poor teacher performance so they can't remove ineffective teachers.

The union and their supporters have also opened the door to closures for any elevation in levels for any illness. You do know that Robert White and George introduced legislation to keep schools closed this current school year, right?
