COSTA MESA, Calif.—Parents and students gathered on Aug. 26 outside the Orange County Department of Education building in Costa Mesa, California, to support a lawsuit calling on Gov. Gavin Newsom to reopen public and private schools.
On Aug. 21, the law firm of Tyler & Bursch filed two petitions against Newsom and Sandra Shewry, the state’s public health officer, pursuing an injunction to dismiss current mandates preventing schools from reopening for in-person instruction for the 2020–2021 school year.
