    And you have not proven that any Labor Union, is making it possible for anyone anywhere to skip work and still get paid. THEY HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THAT. A Labor Union may make suggestions or base their opinions- BUT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE POWER TO CARRY IT OUT!

    BUT DO KEEP HOPELESSLY FLAILING YOUR LITTLE WINGS, fanning the flames of discourse and confusion, TRYING TO CONVINCE SOME FOOL SOMEWHERE WITH YOUR DISINFORMATION- AND BARKING UP THE WRONG TREE, TRYING TO SCORE SOME CHEAP SHOT POLITICAL POINT!

    QUESTION IS- WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU NOT OUT THERE WORKING TODAY- INSTEAD OF SPENDING ALL OF YOUR AVAILABLE TIME HERE TODAY CRYING AND COMPLAINING ABOUT UNIONS?

    they got to dictate that schools stay closed. the emails prove that.

    I'm not here to argue- SO WE WILL JUST HAVE TO AGREE TO DISAGREE.

    THE CDC MADE RECOMMENDATIONS SURE, BUT THE DECISIONS TO REMAIN OPEN, RE-OPEN, OR CLOSE SCHOOLS HAS BEEN WITH STATE AND LOCAL OFFICIALS, SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS, AND PRIVATE SCHOOL ADMINISTARTORS ALL ALONG- NOT TEACHERS UNIONS..........

    .........................JUST AS UNIVERSITIES, TRADE SCHOOLS, BARBER AND BEAUTY COLLEGES, AND WHEREVER YOU GET YOUR GUITAR LESSONS!

    It's not just Public Schools that shut down!

    Perhaps your lack of understanding comes from a lack of wanting to understand- BECAUSE IT IS NOT PLAYING INTO YOUR ULTERIOR POLITICAL MOTIVATIONS!

    Newly-surfaced emails between teachers union executives and officials working for the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) show that the unions played a role in crafting the language of the CDC’s school reopening guidelines, The New York Post reported.

    The emails show that CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky coordinated with American Federation of Teachers (AFT) on language for the guidelines, and the union even described the CDC as its “thought partner.”

    “We were able to review a copy of the draft guidance document over the weekend and were able to provide some initial feedback to several staff this morning about possible ways to strengthen the document,” AFT senior director Kelly Trautner wrote in an email to coronavirus mitigation officials. “…We believe our experiences on the ground can inform and enrich thinking around what is practicable and prudent in future guidance documents.”

    A spokesperson for Walensky denied any political interference in the creation of the guidelines for school reopening:

    “As part of long-standing best practices, CDC has traditionally engaged with organizations and groups that are impacted by guidance and recommendations issued by the agency,” spokesperson Jason McDonald told The Post. “These informative and helpful interactions often result in beneficial feedback that we consider in our final revisions to ensure clarity and usability.”

    Who would be more qualified to set standards than the teachers' unions?

    Eagle-eyed observers may note that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) changed its guidance for school distancing from six feet to three feet last month, thus removing the rationale Blue York Shitty and other blue-state schools had.

    But the United Federation of Teachers (UFT) has an outsized influence on the city's Department of Education (DOE), so the city is slow-walking to the finish line of 2020–21.

    "On Wednesday," a nearby elementary school principal emailed parents last week, "we were asked to 'await further guidance' in planning for 3 ft. distancing. We believe this may be because UFT and DOE have not reached an agreement on the distancing change. We cannot move forward until this is resolved." (In classic Blue York misgovernance fashion, the DOE immediately disputed this, though the delays on the ground remain.)

    Public schools are flush with federal dollars. If they aren't open today, it's because they don't want to be.

    One has to wonder why he spends 24 hours here on JPP where nobody listens instead of spending on those major forums and sites.

    Hey Shit-for-brains!

    DO YOU THINK PUBLIC SCHOOLS ARE THE ONLY SCHOOLS THAT SHUT DOWN- or are still shutdown?

    "LOOK- OVER THERE- SHINEY"!

    GIVE US A BREAK AND STFU!

    Do you?

    What's that got to do with public education unions exercising undue influence on health policy?
