Governor Asa Hutchinson is proposing legislation to get mask mandates in schools. His plan is to make local school boards the scapegoats for mask mandates by giving them the authority to require masks in their schools.Obviously, Asa will target anyone he has leverage over, but don’t you think his first target will be the same legislators he was able to flip on the bill to give back fines? Of the 28 flippers, 23 of them voted to prohibit mask mandates and they will be Asa’s prime targets. Here is the list of the 23: Boyd, Bragg, Breaux, Brown, Coleman, Crawford, Eaves, Eubanks, Evans, L. Fite, Hawks, Holcomb, Jean, L. Johnson, Ladyman, Lynch, Maddox, McNair, S. Smith, Tosh, Vaught, Wardlaw, and Wooten
In the Senate where Asa needs two Senators to flip, only Senator Hester flipped on the bill to give back fines.
Because Asa will likely target these Representatives and the Senator, please give them your support for standing firm on prohibiting any government mask mandate! Don’t let Asa pressure them into become known as “CAREER FLIPPERS.”
Asa will also try to flip other legislators, so all legislators who voted to prohibit mask mandates need your support for standing firm. Who voted to prohibit mask mandates? Here is how each Senator and each Representative voted.
You need to let your Senator and Representative know your opinion on Asa’s plan to make school boards the scapegoats. Time is short!
