Missouri AG files class action lawsuit against schools enforcing mask mandates on children
Fox News
Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt on Tuesday filed a class action lawsuit against school districts that have instituted “arbitrary and capricious” mask mandates.
"We filed this suit today because we fundamentally don’t believe in forced masking, rather that parents and families should have the power to make decisions on masks, based on science and facts," he continued. "I am committed to fighting back against this kind of government overreach. Americans are free people, not subjects." Schmitt’s lawsuit lists Columbia Public Schools, the district's superintendent and its board of education and members as defendants. It comes two days after dozens of Columbia Public School parents protested outside the school district’s administration building demanding an end to its mask requirement for the new school year, which started Tuesday.More Related News
