Who would threaten to defund and close schools during a worldwide pandemic? Who would allow children to needlessly die?

Governor Ron DeSantis has failed and continues to fail to keep Florida families safe.

We can all agree that regardless of the money in our bank account, the zip code we live in, or the color of our skin, our Florida children, teachers, and families deserve to be healthy and have leaders that follow the recommendations top health professionals, the CDC (Centers for Disease Control), and the American Academy of Pediatrics; that children (and caregivers) wear a mask.

Instead of focusing on Florida's families, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has increased his radical behavior and his out of state fundraising. The governor is pandering to Trump's base as he eyes a run for the presidency. Unfortunately the children, teachers, families, and the people of Florida can not trust the health and well-being of our loved ones to a man that has been so radicalized and purposefully neglects Florida.

Can you please take 1 (one) minute to send a message to the Secretary of Education and the Biden administration to use the power of their offices to protect the health and well-being of children in Florida schools.

We must push back on this or stand ready to throw out all public health measures (polio and measles shots, seat belts, driving under the influence, nuclear plants in your back yard, etc.).
