In an emotional plea via Facebook Tuesday, Illinois attorney Thomas DeVore called for help to fight the Illinois State Board of Education and the power they're using to intimidate local school districts.
The current issue is mandating COVID masks on local school districts.
"I've got a school district that's willing to take this fight on, and it has to be fought," DeVore told his LIVE audience, pounding his fist on the desk,"If this issue is not fought with ISBE right now, everybody quit what you're doing and accept there's no limits to the discretion the executive and administrative agencies can rule over you."
DeVore said he's spoken with a school district attorney from downstate that met with the ISBE on his district's optional mask policy and the representatives could not defend their position of intimidating the district based on the governor's executive powers.
"If we're not going to support them, what are we going to do?" DeVore said.
