Kevin McCarthy: If Democrats ‘Trusted the Science’, They Would Have Voted for Ashley Hinson Bill to Unmask Kids in School
Breitbart, Feb 8, 2022

House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) told Breitbart News in an exclusive statement on Tuesday that if Democrats truly “trusted the science,” they would have voted for Rep. Ashley Hinson’s (R-IA) bill to unmask children in school.

House Republicans offered a motion to defeat the previous question on H. Res. 912, a bill to enhance the U.S. Postal Service. If the House passed Republicans’ motion, they would have the House consider Hinson’s legislation, the Unmask Our Kids Act, or H.R. 6619. Hinson’s bill would:

*  Block local education agencies from receiving Department of Education funding unless:
            *  Schools are open for in-person learning
            *  School mask mandates allow parents to opt-out on behalf of their children

Two-hundred and twenty-one Democrats blocked the Republican motion that would have ensured that children can receive in-person learning and do not have to be forced to wear masks in school.

"In Iowa, @IAGovernor has worked to ensure parents can send their kids to school in person & decide if they want their kids to wear a mask at school. But that's not the case across the country. My Unmask Our Kids Act will empower parents to make decisions that impact their kids." (Video)
