An indoor mask mandate is back in place in Burlington, Vermont.
Earlier this week, the city council unanimously approved an indoor mask mandate in certain settings like retail shops and theaters. It also calls for the same in restaurants, bars, and gyms, unless someone has proof that he's vaccinated against coronavirus. These rules don't apply to churches and schools.
Many religious schools may have to give up prekindergarten and child care if President Joe Biden's Build Back Better federal stimulus bill passes in its current form, school officials say.
The bill would provide about $400 billion in federal funds designed to expand access to early childhood services, including child care and preschool.
