LOS ANGELES (CNS)—A legal foundation filed suit July 21 to overturn Gov. Gavin Newsom’s order barring schools in the counties of Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, Riverside, and elsewhere in California from bringing students into the classrooms this fall in response to soaring COVID-19 infections.
The Center for American Liberty (CAL) brought the complaint against Newsom, state Attorney General Xavier Becerra, state Public Health Officer Sonia Y. Angell, and State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond in Los Angeles federal court, challenging new rules that would force many of the state’s districts to teach remotely when school starts next month.
