Parents have yanked their kids out of child care center due to mandatory masking.
"The teachers are now becoming mask police." Child care center execs claim Gov. Phil Murphy's recent executive order mandating masks for visitors, staff, and kids from age two and up will cause big problems for an already-struggling industry. The industry wants Murphy to move faster and disburse $700 million in ARP federal pandemic aid earmarked specifically for child care centers.
