Highlights below: “Schools are important, let’s just get that out of the way. So why would you close schools, which you did, Governor, when no children died of COVID? What would make you make that decision? You closed schools. The impact on that was generational – you and the other governors that closed schools destroyed the lives of children,” Senator Moreno said when questioning Green. “Was it a mistake to close schools? Simple ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer,” Senator Moreno pressed Green, who refused to answer the question. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:20:29Z |
