JK – masks are back for kids only

Now that we are free to travel and go about our lives mask-free, there is still one group of people who are forced to wear masks all day: kids in schools. Specifically, kids in the Milwaukee Public School District.

Just one day after masks were made optional in MPS, the district reinstated the mandate. This heavy-handed move by the teachers’ unions comes just days after Governor Tony Evers vetoed a bill to break up MPS into smaller districts with more choice for students.

“As Americans across the country rejoice in the return to normal, kids in the Milwaukee Public School District are forced to wear masks for 7+ hours a day,” said RGA Spokeswoman Maddie Anderson. “Governor Evers sits idly by mask-free knowing he can’t say anything because he is 100% beholden to the teachers’ unions who bankroll his campaign.”
