WASHINGTON, (United States) .- The school districts of Los Angeles and San Diego, the two largest in the state of California, announced that they will not reopen the schools next September.

President Donald Trump He criticized the decision at the same time that he continued to press for the students to be received in the classrooms in the coming months.

In an interview in CBS News He referred to the anxiety of both the children and their parents about the situation. “They are dying because they cannot do what they are doing” in reference to mothers who “cannot go to work because suddenly they have to stay home and watch their children.” School districts have expressed rejection of the president’s threat to cut funds for those who do not open their doors.
