Asked by a reporter what the president would say to parents who have kids in schools districts that are planning to go online-only in the fall, McEnany said:
“The president has said unmistakably that he wants schools to open. And when he says open, he means open in full, kids been able to attend each and every day at their school. The science should not stand in the way of this.”
