Ron DeSantis actually said...

"If the federal government plans to step in, and overrule parents, I would fight back vociferously against that."

"If you believe in the masking during the school, you`re free to do it. No one is saying you can`t do it. But if you`re somebody that is concerned about that that thinks that that may not be the right ..."

"Florida's Ron DeSantis says he'll try to withhold salaries of school superintendents, who order mask bans."

"Parents choice in Florida, and government can override the parents. And so, we believe the parents are the ones that have the choice."
