Teacher Strikes. Hayes Gives Lamont School Plan Failing Grade.

U.S. Representative Jahana Hayes will not be silent. The first term Fifth District Democrat and national teacher of the year has examined Governor Ned Lamont’s fall school reopening plan and found it wanting.

Hayes expresses her disappointment with her fellow Democrat in a Thursday night tweet. Full marks to Hayes for sharing a critical opinion of a fellow Democrat, breaking the poisonous spell of political tribalism. Hayes reminds us that diversity of opinions is a crucial liberal value.
