Hogan said in a statement Monday afternoon that the Montgomery County, Maryland, health officer overstepped his bounds when he issued a directive last week demanding that private schools in the Washington, DC, suburb not conduct in-person learning until October 1. The governor issued an emergency order reversing the October 1 mandate, saying in a statement the decision on whether private schools in the county could reopen in-person is up to individual schools and parents.
We have seen increases in transmission rates for COVID-19 in the State of Maryland, the District of Columbia and the Commonwealth of Virginia, particularly in younger age groups, and this step is necessary to protect the health and safety of Montgomery County residents."Read MoreBarron Trump, 14, is scheduled to enter the 9th grade at St. Andrew's Episcopal School, a private school in Potomac, Maryland, part of Montgomery County.
He's gonna be one of the few remaining in power.
And the plot thickens

So now Baron has now become a political pawn lol, I bet Melania won't be happy about that or him going back to school! Trump's dinner will be in the dog tonight 😂😂
never_trumper1 The plot thickens
Marylanders both sides of aisle expressed sincere compassion during your personal health crisis. Instead of expressing same compassion and concern for health and well-being of our children, this is your remedy?! Admonishing Montgomery Co. decision to protect our children! Shame!
SethAbramson Sounds like it's time to remove him from office.
SethAbramson I think you mean Melania’s son.
God Bless you Sir !!
SethAbramson Be Best
SethAbramson So how long until we find out Trump is behind this through a threat, a bribe, or a quid pro quo?
What’s the date for Barron’s return to class? He will make his father proud and set an example for others. Right, Melania?
This is so stupid. Why are you making it sound like it was personal? It’s about the government controlling private schools.
Well so much for the idea of him supposedly being a 'better' Republican.
Hogan is one of the few good Republicans. He doesn't support the current fool that resides in our WHITEHOUSE.
Hes on his second term, Maryland loves him and he cannot be recalled only impeached. Hes fine
Herman Cain is about to get some company.
About time a Republican stood up to Donald Trump about opening Schools, of course we knew that Trump/Melania was not letting his son go back to school with this Virus raging, so that's not surprising.....
How do the people that work at CNN not hate themselves?
