PAOLI, PA Paoli-based Fusion PPE has been responsive in the coronavirus pandemic, with a handy pressure-activate hand sanitizing device it sold to the NFL last year, and a variety of other COVID-19 personal protective equipment.
Fusion Founder and President Mark Rubino said Fusion PPE has been working to provide PPE to the Pennsylvania Area Independent School Business Officers Association (PAISBOA) consortium.
Now, Fusion PPE sees another need arising in the unfolding pandemic. Our Nation is faced with yet another growing concern regarding COVID-19 as teacher unions gather to vote against in-person learning, said Rubino this week.
Glossy postcards jammed into mailboxes. Television ads filling every commercial break, and more ads popping up on Facebook and Instagram. Calls at all hours of the day asking for support, time and money. Campaign advertising and outreach was omnipresent last year in Pennsylvania, and it wasnât because the presidential candidates were the only ones awash with cash.
With nearly the entire 253-member Pennsylvania Legislature up for election, hundreds of candidates were vying for seats in the state House and Senate, while their parties and political allies funneled resources to key races in the high-stakes battle to control those chambers in Harrisburg.

Pennsylvania teachers union leaders have been pressuring government officials to keep schools closed during the pandemic, but they re running into opposition from a growing coalition of parents who find that for most students, remote learning is not sufficient.
Eighty percent of parents in eastern Pennsylvania want schools reopened five days a week. Meanwhile, union leaders have been sending out mixed messages.
In January, Pennsylvania State Education Association press officer Chris Lilienthal claimed that the union “does not tell schools to have in-person, hybrid or remote learning these are decisions that need to be made at the district level.” But in a November interview, the spokesman for the state’s largest public employee union stated that if the union hears “of districts that are disregarding the public health guidelines . we will use our voices.”
