Governor Tom Wolf to announce later Tuesday that masks will be required in all public and private schools starting Sept. 7
HARRISBURG- Masks will be required in all Pennsylvania K-12 schools, Gov. Tom Wolf is set to announce later Tuesday, reversing course amid a statewide COVID-19 resurgence that is filling hospital beds just as students return to class.
The state Department of Health order will take effect Tuesday Sept. 7--the day after Labor Day--and will require students, teachers and staff to wear masks when inside, according to two people briefed on the plan....

Time to homeschool.
The parents and students need to hold mask burning rallies in front of the schools in the mornings. Then stage walk outs, sit ins, and massive mask refusals.
There’s no such thing as state legislatures anymore. Unelected bureaucrats and Governors drunk on power are calling the shots.
The Republicans who wouldn’t let Trump install his own chair of the PA GOP State Committee in 2020 are in charge of my state’s legislature. No wonder.
If masks work why are we still having to use them after one and a half years?
We are the majority. Act like it.
U would pull my children out of there. Yesterday.
True, but I'm still pizzed they didn't count my vote last November.
It’s the Fall Covid Season!
I hear those will be under this mandate soon as well.
‘The parents and students need to hold mask burning rallies in front of the schools in the mornings’
if you think that the typical parents are going to swim against the current zeitgeist, you need to think again...
the government can do nothing without the citizenry permitting them to do so, and parents, particularly mothers, have granted carte blanche for it to practice dictatorship upon their offspring...
covid fascism is our own damn fault...

‘Get in their faces. Ridicule. Abuse. Make them shut up and go away.’
are you going to get in the faces of parents who are making decisions for their own children...? they are the ones who enable Wolf et al to act like the tinhorn despots they are...
very few parents have the balls to stand up against covid crap, and very few people have the rudeness to tell parents they are harming their children with their actions...
the truth is one thing; how people perceive that truth is quite another...
I guess all those heated arguments about masking at your local PA school board were all for nothing. Gov. Tommy has banged the table once again.
I was speaking getting in the face of government. As for parents pushing this crap too, well get in their faces as well.

Full disclosure, I am a vaccinated individual who recognizes vaccinating and masking up children makes absolutely 0 sense.
