Education Sec.Cardona has warned Americans not to let adult politics get in the way of schools reopening safely and remaining open without disruption, specifically expressing concern about states that are preventing schools from instating mask mandates
"The tools are there, it's just -- are we following the mitigation strategies?" Cardona told reporters during the White House press briefing."You know what I'm worried about? The adult actions getting in the way of schools safely reopening. Let our educators educate. Let our school leaders lead. And we can get our schools reopened safely. Another thing I'm worried about that I want to share is complacency. Let's not go back to the school system of March 2020.
Cardona expressed frustration when asked to react to a letter from Leon County, Florida, School Superintendent Rocky Hanna outlining concern about cases in his school district."That's frustrating to hear that letter. This is preventable. This isn't Delta variant, this is policies that are preventing students from getting to the classroom safely," he said.
