CONCORD – Following Governor Sununu’s announcement that he would be signing an executive order requiring all K-12 schools to provide the option of in-person learning at least 2 days a week, Senate Democratic Leader Donna Soucy (D-Manchester) and Deputy Senate Democratic Leader Cindy Rosenwald (D-Nashua) issued the following statement:
"Everyone wants schools to open so children can get safely back in the classroom, but Governor Sununu is making that harder by cutting education funding for schools and not providing assistance, PPE, or vaccinations for teachers. Instead of working with our school districts to make opening schools easier, Governor Sununu has attacked our teachers -- who have faced the unparalleled challenge of maintaining the high-quality education our students deserve with no time, no funding, and in the middle of a global pandemic. Granite State teachers and students deserve more from Governor Sununu, and we must continue working to ensure we can get our students and teachers back in school safely.”
