American Federation of Teachers (AFT) president Randi Weingarten on Tuesday said the Center of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) asked her organization to recommend “language” to be used in school opening guidelines released in February.
In an interview on C-SPAN’s Washington Journal, Weingarten was specifically asked about a report by the New York Post, which alleges that the CDC altered its guidance on when and how schools should reopen in favor of the AFT, the nation’s second largest teachers’ union and one of the top donors to the Democratic Party.
