2 Florida school districts plan to keep mask mandates in place and are exploring legal action after
the state withheld board members' salariesTwo Florida school districts said Tuesday that they plan on keeping school mask mandates in place after the state withheld board members' salaries on Monday.
Alachua and Broward counties said they have consulted with legal experts and are working to file a lawsuit, ABC News reported on Tuesday.
This follows a circuit court judge's decision on Friday that Florida schools can require masks, ruling that Gov. Ron DeSantis' executive order banning school mask mandates was an overstep of his authority and unconstitutional.
The Florida Department of Education argues that the counties' mask mandates violate an emergency ruling protecting "parents' right to make decisions regarding masking of their children in relation to COVID-19."
