7 Virginia schools file lawsuit challenging Gov. Youngkin's executive order on masks

FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. (7News) — An executive order about mask-wearing inside schools by new Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin went into effect Monday morning.

A few hours after the order went into effect, officials announced Monday that schools boards of Alexandria City, Arlington County, City of Richmond, Fairfax County, Falls Church City, Hampton City and Prince William County filed a lawsuit to challenge Youngkin's executive order.

Prince William County School officials confirmed to 7News that the lawsuit was filed in Arlington County Circuit Court.

This lawsuit comes after 13 parents from Chesapeake City Public Schools filed a lawsuit last Tuesday in the Virginia Supreme Court asking for Youngkin's executive order to be suspended until the court could rule on its legality.

The same people that are crying that Biden can't mandate masks totally believe Trumpkin can mandate not to wear masks.

It takes a special type of stupid these days to be a Repub.
