North Carolina House Speaker Tim Moore urges Governor: End student masking policies

Raleigh, NC— North Carolina House Speaker Tim Moore sent a letter to Governor Roy Cooper asking to end the policies that have disrupted classrooms and hindered student achievement and repeal the guidelines that force healthy kids to stay home and effectively mandate masks in schools, as most governors across the country finally do the same.

NC House Speaker Tim Moore said, “Throughout the pandemic, it has been our young children who have paid the heaviest price for the Governor's endless state of emergency and ongoing mandates and restrictions."

He continued, "It is time to end the policies that have disrupted classrooms and hindered student achievement. The science does not support these onerous restrictions that continue to harm our children. I urge Governor Cooper to repeal the guidelines that force healthy kids to stay home and effectively mandate masks in schools."
