Despite the fact that today NJ Gov. Phil Murphy mandated masks in schools today, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports, "Gov. Wolf says he won’t require masks in Pa. schools, unlike in New Jersey. 'School districts in Pennsylvania have to decide what they want to do,' the governor said.
Wolf said Friday that schools 'make up their own mind,' and that he didn’t see it as the state’s role to order masking. Asked whether he had made up his mind, he said: 'Yeah, I have.'"
This makes our work even more important to communicate to the school board that masks are crucial for everyone in our schools. Please, keep encouraging friends and family to sign this petition so we can make our voices heard.
