Florida levies first punishments on schools for mask mandates

[Wingnut]

A line has been drawn.  Alachua and Broward, whatcha gonna do?

The Florida Board of Education voted unanimously to sanction two public school districts that are mandating mask wearing, defying Gov. Ron DeSantis’s executive order banning such requirements.

"These districts, maybe while well-intentioned, have not followed the protocols," said Florida Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran during the education board meeting Tuesday. "They have to comply with the law, whether they agree with it or not."

The DeSantis administration says the two districts, Alachua and Broward, do not allow parents the freedom to choose whether their children wear masks and require doctor’s notes in order to get around masking.

The sanctions, which are the first punishments levied against schools in the state, will be specified after further investigation. Education board chairman Tom Grady, however, said the sanctions could include withholding school officials’ salaries and removing them from their job posts.

SANCTIONING is the kids glove treatment.

Indictments by AG must be drawn up on INDIVIDUALS who enforce this unlawful action.

Until people get thrown into jail, this stuff will continue

During China Joe's recent speech on Covid (rather than focusing on Kabul) he mentioned that the Feds will go ahead and pay the salaries.  He is going against what the governor is doing.
