Ron DeSantis (R) is standing strong in his fight to allow parents, not bureaucrats, to make health decisions for their children. While speaking at a press <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/watch\/live\/?v=3103356609893232&amp;ref=watch_permalink\">conference<\/a> on Monday, he confirmed he will challenge a district court\u2019s ruling, which aims to overturn his order to give parents a choice about whether their children have to wear masks in school.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s gonna be appealed, obviously it\u2019s problematic,\u201d stated the governor. \u201cIf you look at the ruling he\u2019s (the judge) basically saying it had violated the school board\u2019s principle of rights\u2026I think we are going to have really good grounds to appeal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis then said the district has the right to make their own policies, but this should not come at the expense of sidelining parents from important health decisions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the end of the day what the parents bill of rights requires, in our judgment, is that parents be given the right to opt out if they think that\u2019s in the best interest of their kids,\u201d he explained. \u201cDistricts can actually have policies, but you gotta opt forward the parent the right. They\u2019ve basically taken away the right of the parent and said you don\u2019t have a say in it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This comes as even the CDC has admitted that elementary school settings are one of the lowest risk environments for contraction of COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the governor\u2019s words echoed with many parents like ones in Lee County who are concerned about their district\u2019s mandatory mask requirements. One concerned parent said,&nbsp; \u201cthey\u2019re a psychological crutch for adults that have no place on children\u2019s faces.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gov. DeSantis said he\u2019s confident the appeal will be supported by the courts and vowed to continue fighting for the right for parents to make health decisions for their children.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/rep-waltz-u-s-afghan-affairs-in-worse-shape-now-than-in-2001\/\">Rep.
