Biden doesn’t believe in hardening schools, White House says
(Worthy News) – White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Tuesday that President Biden is uninterested in pursuing tighter security at schools in the aftermath of the Uvalde massacre, an option favored by former President Donald Trump.
“I know there’s been conversation about hardening schools. That is not something that he believes in,” said Ms. Jean-Pierre at the White House briefing. “He believes that we should be able to give teachers the resources to be able to do the job.”
Republicans have proposed increasing school security and increasing spending on mental-health resources in response to the deadly May 24 shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, while Mr. Biden and Democrats have called for enacting more gun-control measures.
