.@DuvalSchools & other #FlaPol school districts should see these comments from Ron Meyer, "one of Florida’s leading education policy attorneys" who "questioned the governor’s authority" to issue the masking order. cc: @FLSchoolBoards @PublicSchoolSup (1/4) miamiherald.com/news/local/edu…
"The state no longer is under a state of emergency, Meyer noted, meaning the local boards have the constitutional power to operate, control and supervise schools in their districts. 'I don’t know how Article IX of the Constitution could be more clear,' he said." (2/4)
"Meyer further added that the governor’s definition of freedom of choice appeared situational. The state bans indoor smoking, for instance, he said, because of the effects secondhand smoke has on the people around you, regardless of your desire to smoke, he noted." (3/4)
“‘How is this any different?’ Meyer asked, referring to the use of masks to block germs from infecting others.” (4/4) cc: @DrDianaGreene @andersen4dcps @1_athony @dashwillie #Jaxpol
