QUESTION OF THE DAY: Should Columbia Public Schools keep requiring masks?

KMIZ

Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt has targeted school districts that require masks, telling them they're in violation of a judge's order.

Columbia Public Schools is among the districts Schmitt has written to, telling administrators to drop their mask requirement. He has also sued the district over the requirement.

Schmitt in his letters cites a court ruling that says non-elected officials can't impose health orders. The CPS mandate has been in place the entire year and has been approved by the elected school board multiple times.
