Parents fight DeSantis’ ban on face mask mandates at Florida public schools
BROWARD COUNTY, Fla. – Some parents are fighting Gov. Ron DeSantis’ ban on face mask mandates at public schools in Florida. They are arguing the ongoing rise in COVID cases merits the public health measure.
DeSantis’ executive order makes the use of face masks at public schools optional. John and Robyn McCarthy are both worried about their son’s asthma increasing his vulnerability to a COVID infection.
As he gets ready to start first grade, the parents argue DeSantis is messing with his right to a safe public education.
