Governor J.B. Pritzker says his lawsuit to require masks in school is about protecting children and staff. The suit, filed in Sangamon County, seeks a judge’s approval of the Governor’s order requiring masks for students, teachers and staff. Pritzker says accommodations will be made for students and staff that’s can’t wear a mask, such as using face shields instead.
The lawsuit was filed in response to three Illinois schools that says they will not require masks when classes resume. The Governor wants a judge to approve the mandate. Governor Pritzker says he would not send his own children to a school that doesn’t require a mask.
