Why is Tom Malinowski ignoring the science on reopening schools?
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is out with a new study showing there has been little evidence that schools have contributed meaningfully to increased transmission of the coronavirus.
But teachers unions across the country are refusing to show up to work despite a “striking drop in students’ academic performance” and a surge in student suicide.
Democrats like Tom Malinowski – who would rather shut down the country than stand up to special interests – have largely sided with teachers unions on the issue, despite the science showing schools should reopen.
Why is Malinowski ignoring the science when it comes to putting children back in school? Follow the money. Teachers unions contributed $17,000 to Malinowski’s campaign in 2020.
NRCC Comment: “Tom Malinowski’s refusal to call out his special interest donors is both causing students to fall behind and threatening their well-being. His anti-science position is downright shameful.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Samantha Bullock
