Biden has largely kept a laser-like focus on combating the coronavirus pandemic and promoting his economic recovery package, while setting aside or delaying promises he made on the campaign trail.
from Burbio's K-12 School Opening Tracker, which monitors schools across the country, that also appears to be a promise he's kept. About 65.3 percent of students have returned for traditional, in-person learning, including 72.2 percent in grades K-5 and 62 percent in grades 6-8. About 29.1 percent of students are in schools that have a mix of virtual and in-person classes, including 25.1 percent of kids in grades K-5 and 30.4 percent in grades 6-8.
Biden dropped plans to create a police oversight commission in the White House, instead deferring to police reform legislation that has passed in the House but remains in limbo as senators try to hash out a bipartisan agreement., backing two bills that the House has passed but face steep hurdles in the Senate.
But experts say Biden's first 100 days were boosted by his focus on the coronavirus pandemic. Biden also has proposed a jobs and infrastructure package and, separately, a package focused on health and families.
