Oklahoma gov. slams school district's 'illegal' decision to fire maskless teachers: 'Preposterous'
Fox News
Gov. Kevin Stitt slammed Oklahoma City Public Schools for “having the audacity” to fire six teachers during a staffing shortage because they refused to wear face masks.
"Let me be clear: This is about a school district not following state law. This isn’t a debate about masks.These teachers even said they'd be willing to come back to class and wear a mask. But the superintendent Sean McDaniel wanted to fire them to make a point."
Stitt signed a bill in May prohibiting school boards from implementing face mask mandates. McDaniel, however, implemented Administrative Regulation C-26-R2 on Aug. 13, which requires masks be worn on school property, in school vehicles, and during school functions, KFOR reported.
