1199 President calls on @NYCMayor to close schools in order to contain #COVIDー19 outbreak. One the reasons leaders have stated to keep them open is that healthcare workers would have to watch their kids instead of working and taking care of those who get sick. Statement:

@NYCMayor@NYCMayorsOffice How are you allowing schools to remain open? Hundreds of thousands of teachers and students not social distancing with each passing day.
@WryWake@NY1 If we remain open, at the very least we deserve basic supplies like gloves, masks, sanitizer, and hand soap. Most classrooms sadly don’t even have sinks.
@WryWake@NY1 We aren’t being provided with anything. A news clip showed protective supplies being given to police force, but what about the schools? If we’re being forced to remain open, and we’re being categorized with first responders + healthcare professionals, we should be protected.
@NYCTSubway what a joke of a system. I am a public school teacher relying on the R and F train daily, which fails me more days than not. Another morning I’m forced to pay for a taxi to get to my students.
