QUESTION OF THE DAY: Should the federal government investigate mask mandate bans?
The federal Department of Education said Monday it is opening an investigation into five states that have banned school mask mandates.
The investigations will look into whether such bans violate the civil rights of students with disabilities. Many health experts and medical groups have encouraged the masking of children and staff in schools to slow the spread of the coronavirus amid an ongoing case surge.
However, mandate opponents say wearing masks should be a choice made by students and their parents.
