There needs to be accountability for school boards for their decisions.

CPS needs to learn how to obey the law. They should not be allowed to guide children, if they themselves can't follow the law.

The Laws are written by the House and the Senate. Brian Yearwood, does not write Laws, and he will soon find that out. That will be money spent, for a very good reason.

Brian Yearwood, is going to get a Civics lesson, that he should have learned in the sixth grade. Will he learn anything from this lesson? Not likely. And his sheeple will continue to dote upon him.

The CPS Administration cannot be trusted. If let off they will turn around and do it again.

Because Yearwood has an axe to grind and wants control. Look up how much money he may have gotten to push this Covid agenda...he lied last time the AG dropped the case. Schmitt needs to make sure he can’t try to reinstate the mask mandate. Go get em Schmitt!

As long as there is a chance of the child abuse to continue, then it should go to trial and stop this nonsense.

Ridiculous waste of funds and time! The Superintendent /school board should be able to make those decisions without fear of financial penalty! The wearing of mask is not a wreckless decision and I would much rather err on the side of caution in favor of teacher and student saftey!

He needs to sit his tail down and stop this foolishness. He’s making it a political platform and the school systems are trying to protect our children and those working in the school systems. Why don’t he sue the spam and robo industries she they can stop bothering us.

This frivolous lawsuit is taking precious taxpayer dollars from school districts across the state, forcing them to pay ridiculously exorbitant attorney fees to fight the attorney general's ruling. Mask mandate decisions should be left to local school districts, not state funded government officials.

He is spending too much time and resources spreading misinformation about masks while chasing after his own political aspirations. People in the workplace have a right to health and safety measures by federal law. He is using might makes right to enforce a handful of people's vanity and convenience

It's such a waste if tax payer money. The AG needs to find other ways of making a name for himself.

The fact there is not already one or any attempt at common sense enforcement speaks volumes in it's own right. Maybe we need another department and a 10 year study.......

We used to have government funded mental institutions that would have handled this, but Reagan handed this off to the states who didn't have the money to continue funding.

If the City passes this, the homeless will not go away. They will move into the surrounding neighborhoods. Your children will step over the homeless as they walk to school and you will hear screaming all night long..
