There is no going back to normal. Normal is over

“It’s time to get schools open”. Yes, It should be time, if things had been done right. It’s not a kids academic placement or level that this is about. It’s about getting kids in schools so parents can get back to work. That’s all that matters to them. To get the economy running as if it was normal. It’s not and this is dangerous.

[wallesedano]

It’s. Time. To wake up. I been in intensive care unit for the last. 4. Days. In the city of Inglewood California. Not. Time to sending our kids to school

[GelliSolo]

What a joke! We are running out of medical personal? Wow

[AmpAbuser]

Get the kids back in school so they can give back by hugging and sharing the virus they where forced to get.

[courtneyparrish]

Shut everything down and give us free rent/bills for the rest of the year. No opening schools back up ect

[jdga]

GARBAGE team.






Where's Fauci at?

Before the pandemic Pence was a quiet little spot on the wall nobody knew who he was, Now the spot talks a lot about nothing .

[donnacummings]

Essential for schools to open ONLY when it is safe, not now, too much unknown, too much changing every day to risk our most precious little ones. Economics seem to be the first concern rather than health.

[beautifulstar]

And re using ppe for health care providers is unsafe!!!

[bigtimefirebreather]

It's too little too late Pence. Ur out in Nov.

[rayyysmr]

WE NEED TO GO ON LOCKDOWN. WE NEED TO CANCEL RENT AND BILLS AND GIVE AMERICANS FINANCIAL AID UNTIL WE FLATTEN THE CURVE. WE NEED TO LOOK AT OTHER COUNTRIES AND DO WHAT THEY HAVE DONE.

[jcookiecookie]

I don't agree with the administration but the only positive thing I can say about this, at least Pence showed appreciation to the teachers and the parents. Unlike Trump, I still think Trump and Pence needs to go

[cla]

They AREN’T doing anything for Phoenix!!!

[MrSesmith]

Where was this message three mo this ago?

[godisgood]

So, if schools don't open up, Trump threatens to stop funding the schools.😭

[wallesedano]

I. Miss my familia. I been in the intensive care unit for the last 5 Days in centinela hospital Inglewood California. I dind see my little kids. Due to the COVID-19. And neumonía. Don’t come to say. It’s time to go back to school. Stop tinking in your assets.

[irwinsaltzman]

I live in the south east corner of Houston. The summer sports camps associated with the high schools opened in early June. After two weeks they closed as staff members were infected. I donot know if the kids were infected. This is going to be very difficult to have schools open.

[jilljohnson]

They're drinking Trump's kool-aid
