Governor Glenn Youngkin was elected in Virginia on a solid education platform.
Part of that platform was to rescind the mask mandates, which he did.
Some schools, however, are not following that order, and parents have had just about enough of it.
Unmake the Kids
The science on masks is iffy at best, especially when it comes to children.
When you consider the masks that most children wear, the low COVID rates, and the mental health concerns, parents have every right to be upset kids are still being required to wear these masks.
Merianne Jensen is a mother who has a child in these schools that refuse to remove masks from kids’ faces.
She told the school board, “I know there are many educators who want to protect children.
“This goal is not different from my own. Our implementation preferences may differ, but we want the same thing: to get through COVID without harm.
“Unfortunately, politics leads us to believe there is only one solution – masks.
“Yet thousands of schools around the country have been open during the entire pandemic without masks and no corresponding rise in serious illness.
“There were not child coffins lined up as some educators in this county suggested would be the case.
“In fact, things have been going pretty much as normal. Kids are getting sick despite wearing masks.
“We are forcing healthy children home for ‘exposure’ despite them wearing masks.
“And we are segregating children by vaccination status and religious exemption status despite the wearing of masks.”
Jensen brought the room down with some simple question, asking, “So I ask you, if masks work, why don’t they?”

This is the same school board, Prince William County School Board, that tried to cover up the handling of a 13-year-old girl that was sexually assaulted on campus.
Youngkin needs to step in and get his fixed, period.
He was elected for a reason, so deliver!
