NO - Repeal of Background Checks - NO
 

It appears the VDOE desires to REMOVE essentially ALL Protections the way this

is presented regarding background checks for certain providers?

The Public is PAINFULLY aware that VDOE almost NEVER revokes Licensure unless there is significantly founded Child Abuse and/or Inappropriate S*xual Conduct and/or P*orn involved with its UNDERGROUND listing of Licensure Status reporting. 

In 2020 somehow VA voted to allow FELONS to be Teachers, falsely citing 'Teacher Crisis' when many great Teachers went into ONLINE ONLY Learning, REMOVED from Classrooms. The Manufactured 'Teacher Crisis' is NO excuse to remove any FURTHER Protections of Children by Revoking Critical Protections.
