Yeah, but I'm not sure the teachers being forced back to work during a pandemic would agree with the word choice. Stripping people's rights away can have unexpected repercussions. Oh wait, no. Looking at my history notes, it seems taking people's rights to organize and then putting them in life threatening situations is pretty par for the course.

Edit: it should also probably be noted for our readers at home noticing a social media backlash to Betsy Devos, she's his work too. His push for private charter schools opened up the pandora's box which resulted in public school money being pushed towards private religious schools.
