Then please, please continue to not wear a mask. Get covid. Need hospitalization. Put your family and friends through it. Make the hospital staff issues even worse. Eventually die. Thin the heard

Actually, he should sue the individuals that make this decision, not the schools. The students and the taxpayers should not be punished for the actions of other peoples stupidity.

Parental rights and the students rights are at stake. No school board member has the right over legislators to force this. Missouri’s emergency is over. The alarmists need to start moving on to saving our country from Brandon.

Sheeple can't function, without constant guidance, and their ceremonial masks, and other forms of safety equipment, such as hand sanitizers, etc., etc....

Before forcing students to wear masks they should do online learning. The bottom line is the virus is not any deadlier than the flu for young people. If teachers want to wear a mask do so, but there should be no mandate.

Let the people in each individual district who know the conditions in that district make decisions for them. Politicians need to stop interjecting where thy do not belong just to further their career. It appears they have no regard for what is best for the people. Shameful

He should not be wasting the state's funds for this. The school administrations know what is best for them and their schools. These are different times. Our children should remain safe, as deemed necessary to the current situations.

Let the schools handle what is best for them. He is only doing it for his own political gain while running for Senate. I would think he would have more urgent matters to handle than attacking our schools.

CPS has no legal authority to continue fear-mongering. Cloth masks, the vaxes don’t work, online learning stunts learning and developmental stages, but keep living in fear if it makes you feel better. Mass Formation Psychosis is real. Eric Schmitt does a great job!

He needs to keep his nose out of this. Thank goodness the local schools have enough sense to do what needs to be done and keep our kids safe. Learning from home and being healthy is far better than being in an unhealthy environment and potentially making others seriously ill

Eric will be a bigger problem for the Socialists, when he becomes your Senator.

The Attorney General threats of suing school districts, who are trying to better control illness at their LOCAL LEVEL, should be considered overreach. And any school district who is sued should successfully sue the attorney general’s office for any expenses/damages arising from spread of disease.

That decision belongs to the local school board. He's making it political at the risk of students, teachers, other staff and families.

Doesn't Mr. Schmitt have more important work to do than interfere with schools that are trying to make it safer for their students and staff so they might avoid having to resort to virtual learning.

Let the schools decide about mask mandates. Schmitt is only getting involved in this for political reasons. He should be fighting crime, not high schools

When did the schools get their License to Practice Medicine? I don't recall seeing that anywhere.

We should not rely on other jails to take care of our problems. We have a responsibility to provide the proper facilities to our superhero police force

That will be an average cost, to every single person of Boone county, of $197 per year, for 20 years. $3920. What a deal.

I would support a 10-year tax for a bond issue to build the new jail, not a new forever sales tax.

The need for a new jail isn’t new. County leaders have known for years it needed attention. Maybe the sheriff should’ve prioritized a jail before a multi-million dollar training facility. His budget priorities is his attempt at railroading the city’s public safety staffing and infrastructure needs.

I'd rather we put more money to schools to prevent there from being so many people in jail in the first place. If we fund our schools and the education system, there would be less people in jail. If we funded mental health services- there would be less people committing crimes

Thinking like this is why the city of Columbia is short 50 police officers.

We must all do our part and wear masks, only for two weeks, to flatten curve. Also, stand at least 7 feet away from each other at all times (6 feet for COVID was made up with no science so 7 feet is the new distance). Once big pharma has a vax, it will be mandatory to go to grocery store, etc.
