Rep. Zeldin Statement on His Successful Effort with NY Parents Demanding State Drop Indoor Mask Mandate on Kids

Congressman Lee Zeldin (R, NY-1) issued the following statement regarding the State of New York’s decision to lift the indoor mask mandate for schools and camps beginning on Monday:

“This is the right decision for children across New York, who have sacrificed so much throughout the pandemic and suffered emotionally, physically and mentally from lockdowns and remote learning. I want to thank all the parents and advocates who joined me in repeated demands for the governor and state officials to follow the science and follow common sense, unmask our kids, and give them the return to normalcy that they are so desperate for and rightly deserve.”
