Should the government provide financial aid to families affected by COVID related school closures?

No

No, schools should never have been closed due to COVID

Yes, but only for low income families.

No, schools should never have been closed for COVID

We should cut public school and refund the tax dollars wasted to the people, anything left over should go to charter schools or religious institutions

No, the government shouldn’t be allowed to shut down society in the first place

No, change all schooling to a voucher system depending on income and allow parents to choose between public, charter or home schooling.

Yes, now THIS is the reparations that I can get behind!

I feel like you shouldn't try to push people into private schools due to the long term expenses but its reasonable to give some fund to family because students will be at home and not be served lunch and breakfast at school. The rest should go to public schools and during shut down it should be enforced that public schools upgrade their teaching equipment

Yes, because the government is responsible for those closures.

Yes, but only for families who are poor or in the lower class

yes, and teachers and school administrators who kept schools closed should be fired and banned from teaching ever again.

Not anymore.

Yes, but only for low-income families

For child care

No, the closures shouldn't have happened in the first place.

No schools should not have been closed.

Yes, but only if the funding is truly necessary for the families and if the funding comes from state or local governments

Yes but it depends on how it is used

Yes, if the damage was caused by direct government intervetion.

It’s not “financial aid,” it’s a reparation to families that were forced out of their jobs and schools without consent and forcibly imprisoned in their homes.

Only To Financially Unstable Families

Underfunded public schools should get the funding instead

Yes, enough to support them without giving them a reason to quit their jobs

yes, we need to make money somehow

Yes only if the work and don’t get payed enough to make ends meet.

Yes, if they were knowingly effected by not receiving childcare services during that time. Meaning parent(s) were not able to work fully.

Yes but only if they are in need of it and are poor

they should provide help if they are unable to attend schooling while not increasing the national budget

Again, we should be teaching resiliancy. NOT bailouts. As a community we should be empowering every person with freedom to make choices that benefit them. Stop believing that we cannot do for ourselves.

No because taxes will increase later down the road.

Yes, but only temporary until the schools open again

Absolutely, they were working and couldn’t help that

Yes, as long as it does not defund public schools.

No, but nationalized healthcare, a planned economy, a ban on private industry, worker cooperatives, a living wage, and a universal basic needs program would have offset the negative effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, on the working class

No, the government should reopen schools.

We should restructure society so that there are better options than government interference.

There are more important things to focus our country’s money on.

a small amount

yes, they should provide aid to families affected by any school closures

I think it depends

they should've doen this instead of sending all this money to ukraine, although we have been paying for the stimulus checks now that we receieved years ago.

Yes, if the family is low-income.

Return the tax dollars to the people

Fund both the parents and the schools; their interests are not mutually exclusive

the family should pay a little bit of it

I think that the money should be given to the public schools to help their funding.

Yes, and the government should provide financial aid to all families that need it, in general.

Yes, but only to fund childcare and basic essentials

We should focus more on providing better funding for public schools.

Depending on the income

Government shouldn't be involved in education.

Yes, but if their is a criteria.

Yes, if the entire family stays current on their Covid shots.

Yes, but only because of the former administrations' failures and the funding should come from State Governments.

No, give it to the schools

Very difficult to just say this will happen when it never will. And if it is it will be run poorly

Yes, but only during the relevancy of COVID

Yes, but not if they are not doing anything to try and fix there situation.

No, federal relief funds are often too unregulated.

No, plenty of financial aid was already given.

Yes, but only to families who apply for it and wrote a statement of how it affected them to be reviewed and then the government can provide aid

Yes, but dependent upon the family's Federal Poverty Level.

Yes, the government should provide financial compensation for shutting the world down

no, everyone was affected

Yes, but that was two years ago and should have already stopped, but, inexplicably, has not

Yes in relation to taxes

Yes, but only if the family isn't financially equipped to do so independently

Each state should decide how to distribute COVID relief funding

I don’t really care.

Only if needed.

This question needs more clarity

No and prohibit the government from closing down schools in the future due to Covid cases and allow parents to decide for their children if they will send them to school or homeschool them during times when Covid cases are on the rise.

Yes, many people were affected and need help

Depends on the situation at hand

Yes, but the officials who imposed the closures should be personally liable, not taxpayers.

only if the family needed it, eat the rich.

No and forbid the government from closing down schools for Covid cases in the future and let parents decide if they will send their kids to school or homeschool them during periods of Covid case rises.

No, the pandemic is over.

No and forbid the government from shutting down schools due to Covid cases in the future in allow parents decide whether they will send their child to school or homeschool them during times of Covid cases.

I do not have enough knowledge of this issue to have a stance

Yes, in the form of tax cuts

Yes, but only if they need the money to help get kids food.

yes but not to fund “private school tuition” but rather help families provide care for younger children who have to be watched at home.

Covid ia not real

Yes, and it should promote alternative schooling options

Yes, but it shouldn't go towards anything related to private school.

yes, if they took all the precautions in order not to get it. Or if it affected their ability to keep up with school

Yes, but more to those who need it.

The government should only provide financial aid to families affected by COVID related school closures IF the effect was their child/children are suffering educationally due to it and need more education materials.

If they want to they can

No And ban anymore Government school shut downs from Covid and allow parents to decide if they will send their kids to school or not when Covid cases arise.

No, because many people are taking advantage of it and are their isn't enough people working.

Yes, but only to low-income and middle-class families in which the parent or guardian had to take time from work to supervise their children which negatively effected their income.

Yes, but not so much that anyone can just end up depending on the government

They already have COVID! They don't need AIDS on top of that!

Yes, as long as there isn't a stay at home parent

Yes, but it must be temporary.

No, but they should provide other aids like food, internet access, utility assistance, etc. as the financial burden increases when children are home.
