Nunes had said that schools in California could've gone back to physical classes "in two to four weeks."

Newsom hasn't officially canceled the school year in California, though earlier in the week the state's superintendent of public instruction, Tony Thurmond, said that it was likely students would not return to the classroom, but that virtual instruction would continue.

On Thursday night Nunes asserted that people should get back to work as soon as possible, despite the White House extending its social distancing advisory for all Americans until the end of April.
