The federal government can make the health safety measures requirements, as state governors are doing, she said. Critics of the Trump administration’s pandemic response have long called for a national strategy on mitigation efforts.Trump last week attacked the federal government’s health protection agency, the CDC, for school reopening guidelines that he said were too tough, expensive and impractical.

“We know that children get the virus at a far lower rate than any other part of the population. There is nothing in the data that would suggest that kids being back in school is dangerous to them,” she told CNN. But since many states relaxed coronavirus restrictions, the virus has found a new toehold. So far in July, 24 states have reported record increases in cases of COVID-19, the respiratory illness caused by the novel coronavirus, according to a Reuters tally.

DeVos called the guidelines “common sense” measures designed to be helpful to schools as they consider how, not if, to reopen.

Make it mandatory that they quit teaching children there is no God, a subverting our our founding.' In God we trust'. Not in Pelosi we trust.Resign or Restore the Christian biblical foundation of our nation.GBAA

Term limits will actually drain the swamp from both sides of the isle

These are kids that we are talking about. They will do stupid shit on the campus with or without regulations. Opening Schools is a good idea but making it mandatory to attend and getting rid of online classes altogether isn't. People who want to take the risk should be allowedto

Third-rate politician 👇🏻!!

Why is Nancy’s seal so similar to a Nazi symbol? Asking for USATODAY

What’s wrong with her face? What’s wrong with her neck?

Parents, they are your children, not the government's. You do what you think is best and forget about what the politicians want, including Trump. America is not yet a dictatorship.

In Peru schools and universities are giving virtual classes. Why is it not possible in the US who has advanced so much in technology? It is WRONG to expose them during this pandemic

She doesn't wear a mask when she thinks nobody is looking

SpeakerPelosi is one virus we just cant seem to find a cure for.

The day that schools are successful in mandating masks and social distancing is the day this all goes away... 🙄 You can’t get a 5-year old not to pick their nose. And you can’t get a 15-year old to put their cell phone away. This will work. Get the 🍿

I can’t risk sending my kids to school without having a plan for the reopening.

Whoever thinks sending kids 2 school w/o firm guidance is a good idea needs to have their head examined. So far no big outbreaks w/kids cuz they’ve been separated at home w/ parents. Just like with young adults, when kids start mixing you’ll see spikes there 2. SuperSpread

Schools should resume in the fall:

So now it ok to open schools? Before it was too dangerous. The puppets in the MSM are obvious.

And fund it!

I agree with Nancy we need a plan . Before we send children back to school . We are going to war without a plan . We need new leader fast .

When does she go away ? It's bullshit they can stay and collect millions

May not be such a bright idea, but then again not much in the way of that coming from anyone in that country these days,

Yes that's right way to do!

This is the only thing was left to make America completely destroyed

Trump Defends Clemency For Roger Stone—But Pelosi Wants Law That Limits PardonsStone was the subject of an “illegal witch hunt that never should have taken place,” Trump says. That POTUS can pardon a convicted person is remanent privilege of Kings. SCOTUS and Congress must eliminate it by Law to avoid miss use like in R. Stone case by his buddy DT 🤔 No reason to explain SpeakerPelosi has only one 3 x 5 card for Trump's presidential actions. Pass a law that countermands the Constitution.

Education Secretary wants U.S. schools open, offers no safety planEducation Secretary Betsy DeVos kept up the administration's push to reopen U.S. schools in the fall on Sunday, but failed to embrace any blueprint - including federal health guidelines - for how that could be done safely. DeVos also downplayed the risk of children bringing the virus home to parents If kids can go to Walmart, they can go to school. Stop acting as if Covid is aireborne H I V. Tell BetsyDeVosED To ride her broomstick and get on one of her yachts now. She’s worthless. Cases are meaningless, how many hospitalized? No one gets Hospitalized unless they have mitigating circumstances, age, diabetes, obesity, cancer effecting lungs or blood.
