- [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] A National teachers union training guides educators how to talk to parents about COVID-19 and instructs them to log their conversations into the Reach app
- The Reach app was created by volunteers during AOC's 2018 campaign and has became a major tool in Democratic campaigns
- The workshop is sponsored by vaccine equity group Made to Save, the National Educators Association (NEA), and the American Federation of Teachers (AFT)
- One slide reads: 'We are NOT telling people what to do or what they should think. We ARE listening to people and responding authentically to their concerns'
- Another reads: 'You do NOT need to be a healthcare expert to have good conversations,' but instructs teachers to encourage people to get vaccinated
- Jennifer Mess, a drama teacher at a New Jersey public school blasted the workshop as 'a blatant effort to coerce, manipulate, and even track information'
- Republican New Jersey state Senator Holly Schepisi said the training 'is an unconscionable breach of privacy and ethics' and 'borders on criminal'
