Rally at Gov.’s Mansion to re-open Minnesota’s schools Sunday July 26

Governor Walz is set to announce Minnesota’s plan for the 2020-2021 school year on July 30th. A rally organized by concerned parents with support from American Experiment and Re-open Minnesota Schools will take place at 4 pm on Sunday, July 26th at the Governor’s Mansion.

If we are truly following the science of COVID-19, there is no good reason for our students to remain home from school. Online learning is not enough, and our students c annot afford to lose any more ground. If you agree that our schools should re-open, sign the petition, and tell Governor Walz to re-open Minnesota’s schools!
