Original Note:
This is revisionist. Weingarten, along with nationwide and local teachers unions, advocated for school closures well into 2021. Weingarten was the public face of school closures during 2020 and 2021. She called plans to reopen schools in Fall 2020 “reckless” and “callous.” https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/jul/17/trump-teachers-reopening-schools-coronavirus-randi-weingarten https://www.edweek.org/teaching-learning/how-teachers-unions-are-influencing-decisions-on-school-reopenings/2020/12
