    Default Seven school boards sue to stop Gov. Youngkin’s mask-optional order on the day it tak

    Seven school boards — including one overseeing the largest and most prominent district in the state — are suing to stop a mask-optional order by Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R) on the day it is supposed to take effect, arguing that the order violates the Virginia Constitution.

    I think Obama said it best: "you lost".

    whats a "most prominent" district ? I'm guessing the one that thinks its more important than the rest, likely Fairfax. Kids are kids Fairfax, get over yourself...

    School boards care about the health of their students and teachers. Youngkin cares about pleasing Mr Trump.

    In the school boards’ complaint, their lawyers write that Youngkin’s executive order goes against Article 8, Section 7 of Virginia’s constitution, which asserts that “the supervision of schools in each school division shall be vested in a school board.”

    The lawyers also say Youngkin’s order contradicts a state law passed over the summer that requires Virginia school districts to follow federal health guidelines to the “maximum extent practicable.” The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends masking inside K-12 schools for everyone over age 2, regardless of vaccination status.

    Incorrect on both counts.

    How many school boards are not suing ? Why ? Because those parents, the ones who elected Younkin, dont want it.

    And if you knew anything about Youngkin's campaign, he steered a wide berth around DJT.

    Then why is there a Dept of Education here isn the Commonwealth ? My M-I-L worked there so lets not pretend there isnt one. If they want to take that course there are a WHOLE LOT of things that will have to stop and believe you me the school districts will love that.

    The will of the people can be very wrong sometimes. And this seems to be the will of one man, the governor, in violation of VA law.

    how did that one man get elected ? Actually he and the other two statewide offices and enough seats switched to flop the general assembly ?

    And what was at or near the top of his platform ?

    Virginia was emphatic regarding the direction it wants the commonwealth to proceed.
