Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s mask mandate for schools hit another roadblock on Tuesday when a bipartisan legislative committee rejected the Illinois Department of Public Health’s attempt to reintroduce the governor’s emergency COVID-19 protocols for classrooms across the state.
The legislative oversight panel’s vote on Tuesday comes just shy of a week after the governor’s announcement that he would lift the indoor mask mandate for most public settings on Feb. 28 — but not yet for schools, arguing the “equation for schools just looks different right now than it does for the general population.”State Rep. Keith Wheeler, the co-chairman of the committee, said the ruling left decision-making in the hands of local school districts.
Republican challengers in the governor’s race also slammed Pritzker for his “attempt” to go around the court order. Venture capitalist Jesse Sullivan called the governor’s actions “so extreme his own party is now rejecting them.”
