Civil rights attorney Leo Terrell slammed the education Tuesday for opening civil rights investigations into five Republican-led states that have banned or limited mask requirements in schools, telling “Fox & Friends” the move is a “political stunt” by the joe-biden” target=”_blank”>Biden<
LEO TERRELL: I couldn’t sleep last night. I wanted to talk about this because of the just outrageous accusation that the secretary of education is making. I want to be very clear, Steve. There is no civil rights violation. There’s no violation of the Rehabilitation Act or the American Disabilities Act. This is a political witch hunt on the federal government to try to impose federal mandates on states regarding masking kids. Where is the medical evidence that any kid who has a disability is being denied a quality education? It’s strictly political. It’s a backdoor way to impose a mask mandate by Joe Biden’s administration.
…
I’m a civil rights lawyer. There is no ADA violation. There’s none. This is a political stunt by the administration to try to go backdoor to impose a federal mandate of masking.
