“The best way to send our children to school is to fund it,” she added, highlighting the need for improved ventilation and physical spacing in classrooms to allow for social distancing.
“That takes money. That’s in the HEROES Act,” she added, referencing the relief package the House passed months ago.
The White House has aggressively pushed for schools to reopen in the fall nationwide, noting children’s lower chances of becoming seriously ill from the virus, while opponents have cited children’s potential to spread the virus to staff and members of their households. On Friday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention updated its guidelines to recommend schools reopen with precautions based on local community spread, advising some form of reopening except for areas with uncontrolled community transmission.
