Calif. judge denies restraining order request against school mask mandate
Fox News
A California judge has denied a temporary restraining order request barring the state from enforcing its school mask mandate, which mask-choice advocates argue should be decided at the local level.
"We are pleased that the court agreed with our argument that blocking the continued implementation of the universal masking requirement for K-12 schools was unwarranted at this time," Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office said in a statement provided to CBS 8.
"Our guidance is firmly grounded in science and has been a critical component of our efforts to support the safe return to in-person learning for all students this school year," the statement continued. "Recent studies confirm that schools with universal masking requirements are much less likely to experience outbreaks, confirming that masking is a critical strategy to keep students safe and schools open."
