“I just had the opportunity to get testimony from Secretary Becerra at the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Task Force and Education Labor. And we asked him this very question Why are they mandating that children and Headstart programs wear masks when we’re in the endemic evade the mask, especially masks, and children probably have very little effectiveness and their vaccination status is really not relevant because they’re extremely low risk of disease or death. So given that, why are we still and I did legislation’s on this co-sponsored them why are we continuing to mandate that children are the ones that are the most the most likely to survive or not get ill? Why are we continuing to require they wear a mask? There is no there is no good science or recommendation for that. Children should be able to go back to school.”

“That he relies upon the CDC. The CDC says that they didn’t. They didn’t say a mask mandate. They just give recommendations.”
