Maryland State Senator Justin Ready (District 5 - Carroll County) shared the following letter to the Maryland State Board of Education:

Dear President Crawford,

At the beginning of this school year, the State Board of Education held an emergency meeting and overturned decisions made by elected county boards of education regarding masking. We understand you are meeting to reconsider this topic. We fully support the November 11, 2021 resolution sent by the Carroll County Board of Education to you asking to end the statewide school mask mandate.

With treatment options and vaccination available to children 5 and older, it is time to restore authority to local school boards to make these decisions. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
