January 22, 2021
“Today’s announcement from the administration clears the path for our kids to get back on the court, back on the field and back on the ice. I’m heartened to see the governor respond to our bipartisan push to get scholastic sports back. It will be critical for our local health departments statewide to collaborate with school athletics officials to implement the right health and safety protocols. Our kids and their coaches deserve a smooth, safe, coordinated transition back to gameplay. I’m so relieved student athletes in my community will be able to rejoin their teammates and make memories they’ll never forget,” said Ra.
