Pennsylvania's high court strikes down school mask mandate
Fox News
The Pennsylvania State Supreme Court declared void a statewide school mask mandate supported by Gov. Tom Wolf and Acting State Health Secretary Alison Beam on Friday.
The ruling affirmed a decision by the lower Commonwealth Court, which said earlier this year that the state's Disease Control and Prevention Act of 1955 did not provide Beam "the blanket authority to create new rules and regulations out of whole cloth."
A written court opinion summarizing the ruling has not yet been issued but is forthcoming, according to FOX-43.
