Federal judge permanently blocks Biden preschool mask, vaccine mandate

From the article:
“The Head Start Mandate required all program staff and volunteers working in classrooms or directly with children and contractors whose activities involve contact with children and families to be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 by Jan. 31, 2022.
The mandate also required immediate masking by all individuals 2 years of age or older when indoors, outdoors, during activities that involve close contact with other people and when two or more people were in a vehicle owned, leased or arranged by the Head Start Program.
U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty ruled in favor of Louisiana, cementing a previous injunction against the mandate issued in a lower court in December of 2021.”
“The geographic scope of the permanent Injunction will be limited to the 24 plaintiff states: Louisiana, Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia and Wyoming.”
