The Arizona Supreme Court on Tuesday unanimously upheld a lower court judgment blocking bans on masks in public schools, ruling that the measure and other Republican-passed state laws are unconstitutional.
Tuesday’s ruling came less than two hours after the seven justices heard arguments in the state’s appeal of a trial court judge’s ruling. The justices had hammered Solicitor General Beau Roysden with questions about the Republican-controlled Legislature’s inclusion of such measures in unrelated budget bills.
