“We wrote the order specifically to give all the school systems, basically, eight day to get ready — to listen to parents,” Youngkin said. “Over the course of this week, I hope they will listen to parents, because we will use every resource within the governor’s authority to explore what we can and will to do to ensure parents’ rights are protected.”
