Dems take credit for getting kids back in school, BUT:

 Washington Examiner:

A 2020 Democratic National Committee ad made the rounds on social media. The ad attacked then-President Donald Trump specifically for trying to reopen schools that fall.

Betsy DeVos, the education secretary under Trump, described the White House's statements as gaslighting.

“The only reason the Biden administration is making this claim is because they know families and voters across America are holding them accountable for the union-driven lockouts and catastrophic learning loss that resulted," she said in a statement sent to the Washington Examiner. "But they can’t gaslight America’s parents, who know exactly who held their kids hostage until they got their payday.”

Teachers unions, aligned with President Joe Biden and the Democrats much of the time, were seen as reluctant to embrace reopening.

The Cato Institute's Neal McCluskey questioned the role of the American Rescue Plan in reopening schools given that many reopenings predate it.

"The ARP was signed on March 11, 2021, and many schools were already open at that point," said McCluskey, director of the Libertarian think tank's Center for Educational Freedom. "It bends credulity to think that act was necessary to get schools open. We saw many private schools reopen long before that and some public schools as well."

Much of the education-related funding from the American Rescue Plan remains unspent today.

Virtually all the schools that were still closed when Biden took office were in states where Democrat governors did lockdown that kept them closed.  This is just another example of the deceit of the Biden administration and its politics of fraud.  It was Trump who wanted the schools to be open.
