Gianforte Reaffirms Parental Rights in Schools

Helena, MT – Yesterday, Montana Governor Greg Gianforte announced the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services (DPHHS) issued an emergency rule promoting parental rights regarding masking in schools. Montana Republican Party Chairman Don “K” Kaltschmidt released the statement below:

“Parents deserve a voice in decisions that impact their children, including top-down directives that determine if their child has to wear a mask all day at school,” said Chairman Don “K” Kaltschmidt. “I hope schools across the state will follow the rules direction, lift up the voices of Montana parents, and empower them to decide what is best for their child.”
