Federal court orders Tennessee to halt new law banning mask mandate in schools
Fox News
A federal court dealt Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee a setback Sunday after ordering the state to put a newly signed law banning mask mandates in classrooms on ice due to possible confusion it creates for schools, according to a report.
The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court of Middle Tennessee and claimed that the law would put them at severe risk of contracting the virus. U.S. District Judge Waverly D. Crenshaw, Jr., on Sunday, ordered the status quo be maintained for the disabled children who are plaintiffs in Williamson, Shelby and Knox counties. The paper reported that the status quo will be in place until a court hearing on Monday.
