Maryland budget cuts must not harm vulnerable residents | COMMENTARY https://t.co/8Z5FZZhiu9

[TDPBaltimore @TDPBaltimore]

https://t.co/SQ3wY10YLl This is a good analysis of the terrible impact of budget cuts during the Great Recession. Gov Hogan's new cuts will do more of the same. #stopthehogancuts

[Vaughn Stewart @DelegateStewart]

Meanwhile, Gov. Hogan announced cuts that will disproportionately harm those struggling the most.

Balancing the budget on the backs of the poor isn't just cruel--it will also slow our recovery. We should tax large corporations and the wealthiest few. https://t.co/te5ehlW1Ed

[TDPBaltimore @TDPBaltimore]

VERY IMPORTANT TO SEE THE CUTS THAT HOGAN is proposing.

Teachers, administrators and parents/guardians, have your states or providences issued school reopening guidelines for fall? If so, provide a link to the guidelines in the comments. Please retweet so we can get as many responses as possible. #schoolreopening #schoolsreopening

Just wondering how many parents, teachers, and students agree with this post about the psychological harm of mask wearing and strict social distancing?
