I hope they REFUSE to pass the budget without opening the schools.

CDC, AAP, WHO, and others say that's in-person schooling.
And hopefully the state legislature will (finallly) see that and act.
I think this bill is premature. They should be focusing on mass vaccination.
PP - I just think they would get more support for it if they waited until end of February. That’s all.
I am almost certain that the bill would not require opening now, but this fall.
It says right in the bill, effective immediately upon passage of the bill.

Well they should, but he needs to be talking directly to the selfish, out-of-their-depth dingbats on our school boards.
He’s supplying the backbone that they lack. They can blame their decisions on him now.

But if the tie vote means this bill isn't getting reported up and Northam's VDOE is still letting districts do what they want, then there's no actual action. Just a lot more talk.
They have to get the budget up.

The sponsors are going to refuse to vote on the budget without it. With 2 D's, that's enough to hold up the budget.

It says choice of students actually doing the in-person learning is up to parents/guardians and doesn't specify the number of days, but districts must offer it.
It's on the docket for the education committee today.
The sponsor of this is a doctor who got written up by HHS for using her patient roles to send political mailers & solicitations (and who only escaped sanction because she’s in the party who controls the HHS). Sounds like someone who truly has the best intentions and almost sound advisers.
The co-sponsor is Chap Petersen...
Ah, yes, good ol’ JC, who’s pro concealed carry on school grounds and thinks Washington Football shouldn’t change its name because it might upset their fans’ feelings. Stand-up guy.
Well, he's got this policy right.

Again, the bill can be sponsored by Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Thor for all I care. Schools must open, and thankfully the Governor has now said they SHOULD be open for in person classes.
