The battle continues over mask mandates. Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt is now telling school districts and county public health departments — that he will take them to court — if they do not stop enforcing health orders such as mask mandates and quarantine rules.
Schmitt points out that a judge in Cole County last month issued a ruling that said health orders from local authorities are “null and void.”
Meantime, Truman State’s indoor mask mandate continues. It will stay in effect when students come back after Christmas break. But it will be reviewed again before the end of January.
