• The Teacher’s Unions (UTLA and others), Teamsters and SEIU (State Employees) do not believe the schools will be “safe” this semester

• Gov. Newsom Ordered the Schools Closed subject to meeting specific and TOUGH Health Requirements

• Agreement has already been reached for semester closure (Between LAUSD and UTLA- Other Districts Too!)
