Florida Governor To Let Parents Decide Whether Students Wear Masks
Newsy
Gov. Ron DeSantis plans to issue an executive order that will leave school masking up to their parents.
One of the Republican Party's most prominent rising stars is mocking new government recommendations calling for more widespread use of masks to blunt a coronavirus surge. “Did you not get the CDC’s memo?” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis joked Wednesday, before an almost entirely unmasked crowd in a Salt Lake City hotel ballroom. “I don’t see you guys complying.” DeSantis announced there won't be any new pandemic restrictions in his state, which is a COVID hotspot. And he plans to issue an executive order to let parents decide whether their kids wear face masks at school this fall.More Related News
