Youngkin Accuses Weingarten of Lying about School Closures

Top news right now: Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin has criticized the American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten for deflecting the blame for school closings during the pandemic. Youngkin argued that the teachers union wanted schools closed, which has had a devastating impact on children's mental health, development, and future earnings potential. This comes as data from the National Center for Education Statistics show that 70% of U.S. public schools have reported an increase in students seeking mental health services since the start of the pandemic. Furthermore, a study published by the conservative think tank Just Facts found that the mental stressors brought about by school closures will destroy seven times more years of life than lockdowns saved.
