California Gov. Gavin Newsom is facing backlash after he revealed last week that his children have returned to in-person learning at their private school in Sacramento County, while many public schools in the state remain closed under public health restrictions.

When directly asked during a press conference about his own children’s education, Newsom said that his children, who attend private school, are resuming in-person classes after months of remote learning due to the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic.
