Recall Polis Organizer Is the Only Attendee at Anti-Mask School Walk-Out [View all]

Recent national polling shows that mask mandates are overwhelmingly popular with parents, with 59% approval compared to 30% opposition.

An Axios|Momentive poll, released two days ago, noted the deep partisan divide over student masks: “85% of Democrats, 66% of independents, and 32% of Republicans supporting mask mandates for all students and staff at their child’s school.” It also notes that conservative opposition to student masks is lower in states with higher rates of COVID infections.
