NEA Position on COVID-19 Vaccines
As a vaccine for Covid-19 begins to become available, the National Education Association, through resolution C-2, believes “that vaccines are essential medical tools in preventing infectious diseases. The Association acknowledges that vaccines must be pervasive to be effective.” Read the NEA’s position on Covid-19 vaccines.
Safe Schools Report
FEA launched the Safe Schools Report, to collect and display important, factual information surrounding the opening of school campuses across the state. Parents and educators can also submit Covid-related information about their school or district’s reopening. In a recent op-ed, AFT President Randi Weingarten lays out what safe reopening of schools can and should look like.
FEA update (Dec. 3 update): To comply with recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control, most FEA staff are working remotely until there is a two-week coronavirus positivity rate of 5 percent or below. Our work continues as normal, with FEA staff available through email, phone and voicemail. As always, we remain committed to advocating for our members and students.
