Kids in N.J. schools will have to continue to wear masks as Murphy extends mandate
The mask mandate comes as part of a 90-day extension of Gov. Phil Murphy’s emergency powers related to the COVID pandemic, Murphy said at his Monday coronavirus briefing.
“With the exponential surge in our numbers, it would be the height of irresponsibility to lift these basic public health requirements at this time. I will not let that happen,” he said. “The decision to impose the in-school mask mandate is a rational one, and its burden on students and others is easily justified by the government’s interest in controlling the spread of COVID-19 while maintaining in-person schooling,” the judge said in his ruling.
