Federal Judge in Louisiana Blocks Biden's Mask and COVID Shot Mandate at Head Start Preschools in 24 States Head Start programs operate 1,600 agencies nationwide for children from birth to age 5. Biden sought to make masks for children 2 and older and mandatory COVID shots for all workers, including volunteers set to begin Jan 31st. https://bit.ly/3EKG0c4 U.S. District Judge, Terry Doughty, issued a preliminary injunction for the 24 states that brought suit against the requirements until the case is settled. The 24 states include: Louisiana, Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia and Wyoming. Any so-called "blue" states in there? Alabama AG, Steve Marshall in response to the injunction said: - "Once again the federal executive branch has overstepped its legal authority to make laws and once again a federal court has agreed with the State of Alabama that such overreach is unconstitutional and should be stopped..." - "This victory will help ensure that numerous Head Start programs will continue to operate rather than have to fire teachers and cut back services to children. And this win will forestall the nonsensical and damaging practice of forcing masks on 2-year-olds.” #covid #maskmandates #covidshotmandates #biden #covid19 #vaccinemandates
