Chanting and holding signs, the group protested
the state's indoor mask mandate in schools.
The rally took place after a state appeals court
dismissed a motion to overturn the mandate.
As of now, masks are still required in schools,
public health care facilities and on public transportation. “Unmask our children...it's not about science, it's about political science," chanted Tina Forte, of Rockland
County.
Gov. Kathy Hochul has said she will reassess the
school masking rule the first week of March, after students return from winter
break.
