Opinion: Gavin Newsom quickly intervened on banned textbooks. Why not school closures?

Newsom backed reopening. “I am of the firm belief that we can safely get back our children, youngest children, get them back safely into schools in small cohorts,” Newsom told reporters in early 2021. “We can get this done. We must get it done.”
