In NC the Returdican controlled legislation branch passed a Bill (veto proof) requiring all public schools to reopen with face to face instruction.

That is not exactly correct.

Cooper vetoed the first bill and the House and Senate went back and fixed it.

And Cooper is still left with the authority to close a school on a district by district basis.


“Districts moving to Plan A for middle and high schools are required to notify DHHS prior to moving to Plan A,” Senate Leader Phil Berger said. “They are required to describe their plan for moving to Plan A. DHHS will not have the authority to veto a district’s plan to move to Plan A; however, the governor will be given the authority to order a closure, restriction or reduction of operations within schools, but must only do so on a district-by-district basis.”

The GOP lost the veto proof override in the last election.
