Stefanik slams NY teacher's termination, alleges it was for criticizing COVID-19 mask mandate on Facebook
Fox News
Stefanik claims pre-K teacher in Fulton County was fired for supporting her on Facebook criticizing the state's mask mandate.
Stefanik decried the termination as "unconstitutional," questioning why Lizzio was put on administrative leave for posts on her personal, private Facebook page. Her campaign against the school board has been bolstered by local parents and even the town's mayor.
"Last night, numerous constituents brought to my attention information regarding a Pre-K teacher in Fulton County who was wrongfully put on administrative leave for sharing one of my Facebook posts on her private, personal Facebook page," Stefanik wrote in a statement Saturday. "This widely-respected Pre-K teacher was outrageously escorted from her classroom and is no longer allowed on school property pending an investigation."
