Pull your heads out of the sand people. CPS is wrong that they are allowed to continue there masking mandate. The judge's ruling actually states that they are null and void. Each child is required to have due process by the local health departments if they want to try.

It is all about choice, and how it should've been the whole time.

The Judge will see them on Friday in her court. All Districts, CPS and U46 specifically, have been served for Contempt, that are violating the TRO and now there are no mandates. #UNMASKOURCHILDREN
