A judge has ruled against Florida Gov. DeSantis' ban on mask mandates in schools, saying 'They simply do not have that authority.'
The court said that under the law the defendants"did not have the authority for a blanket mandatory ban against face mask policy, that does not provide a parental opt-out. They simply do not have that authority," the judge said. The order will not take effect until the written order is issued, Judge Cooper said. The court expected the written order to be issued early next week.
The ruling comes as a growing number of Florida school districts have issued local mask mandates that do not include a parental opt-out, as is required by the governor's executive order. Ten districts so far, including Broward, Alachua, Hillsborough, Leon, Miami-Dade, Palm Beach, Sarasota, Duval, Indian River, Orange have mask mandates without parent opt-out options.
