Conservative activists are encouraging parents to resist mask mandates and COVID-19 health orders in school districts across Michigan.
School board meetings have faced crowds of protesters demanding their districts reject emergency epidemic orders issued by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. Activists who have called the coronavirus pandemic a “hoax” and questioned the effectiveness of vaccines have also attended the meetings to advance their agenda.
