Anthony has introduced bipartisan legislation with Rep. Marcia Fudge to help schools reopen safely by providing much-needed research on the role children play in transmitting the coronavirus. Anthony said: "Children and families across the country are facing significant challenges and disadvantages because of school closures, many of which have the potential to cause profound and lasting impacts on an entire generation of Americans. Reopening our schools this fall should be a top priority as we move forward in combatting the pandemic, and the information gathered from this study will allow us to do so in the safest manner possible."
