The district is asking a judge to dismiss the lawsuit against it, filed by Attorney General Eric Schmitt. CPS has had no mandate in place for months.

If the virus gets worse again, and they say it is going to, then everyone should wear a mask in schools, public and especially stores. Just my opinion.

Jannie Rivers

Because they was trying to keep the kids and staff safe.

Schmitt has said he wants to make sure CPS can't mandate masks to stop disease spread again.

They failed to follow the law then, and they would do it again, without one second of thought. CPS needs some memory stimulation. This will help them to be stimulated. CPS needs to follow the law. They have no authority to legislate the law.

first the CDC said children did not get the virus or carry it. second the only masks that protected you were the N95 , cloth and paper were only 25-30% effective

If you watch someone else's fireworks, you're a communist.

Shooting my own fireworks is dangerous if you’re not careful. Especially when you’re living on a hill. So no I’m not going to take the risk of shooting off fireworks close by neighbors.

This inept city council is trying to turn Columbia into another Portland, SF with all their woke, progressive nonsense.

This is so stupid. DEI, look it up, means to hire the most qualified person with no regard to race, religion, etc. Why are we wasting tax dollars on investigations that serve no purpose when we could do things for the community?

Nicole

As you can see in the comments of yes, folks have no idea what DEI is. DEI is not against the law as an executive order is NOT a LAW. Our state tax $ have better uses!

Max DeYoung

You need those dollars to lure in homeless.

Watch that Federal money dry up. FAFO.
