Clinton School District is in violation of both the  Missouri Constitution and Federal Law! 

 
   Please sign the petition to make masking of our children & Covid Vaccinations completely optional at CLINTON SCHOOL DISTRICT & all surrounding areas. “WE, THE PARENTS, DO NOT CONSENT” to forcing our K-12 CHILDREN to wear masks INDOORS OR ANYWHERE ON SCHOOL GROUNDS. The use of masks for children must be optional, and enforced only by parents and/or legal guardians! 
     
    Furthermore, the schools who have mandates on masks pose a major threat to a child’s development. It ignores the essential needs of a growing child. The well-being of children and teenagers are highly dependent on the emotional connection with others. Masks create a threatening and unsafe environment, where emotional connection becomes very difficult. Informed consent is and should be required for investigational medical therapies.
   
   Regardless of the lack of safety and efficacy behind the decision to require a child to wear a mask, it is illegal to mandate EUA approved investigational medical therapies without informed consent. Mask use for viral transmission prevention is authorized for Emergency Use only. Emergency Use Authorization by the FDA, means “the products are investigational and experimental” only. The statute granting the FDA the power to authorize a medical product of emergency use requires that the person being administered the unapproved product be advised of his or her right to refuse administration of the product. This statute further recognizes the well-settled doctrine that medical experiments, or “clinical research,” may not be performed on human subjects without the express, informed consent of the individual receiving treatment.
   
   The right to avoid the imposition of human experimentation is fundamental, rooted in the Nuremberg Code of 1947, has been ratified by the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki, and further codified in the United States Code of Federal Regulations. In addition to the Unites States regarding itself as bound by these provisions, these principles were adopted by the FDA in its regulations requiring the informed consent of human subjects for medical research. Add State info here if possible. The law is very clear; It is unlawful to conduct medical research (even in the case of emergency), unless steps taken to... secure informed consent of all participants.
   
   Furthermore, by requiring children to wear a mask, you are promoting the idea that the mask can prevent or treat a disease, which is an illegal deceptive practice. It is unlawful to advertise that a product or service can prevent...disease unless you possess competent and reliable scientific evidence... substantiating that the claims are true.
   
   The FDA EUA for surgical and/or cloth masks explicitly states, “the labeling must not state or imply... that the [mask] is intended for antimicrobial or antiviral protection or related, or for use such as infection prevention or reduction.” As you can see from the image below, masks do not claim to keep out viruses.
      Illegally mandating an investigational medical therapy generates liability. There are no efficacy standards on child-sized masks and respirators under OSHA, but there are proven microbial challenges as well as breathing difficulties that are created and exacerbated by masking children. Requiring children to wear a mask sets the stage for contracting any infection, including COVID19, and making the consequences of that infection much graver. In essence, a mask may very well put children at an increased risk of infection, and if so, having a far worse outcome. The fact that mask wearing presents a severe risk of harm to the wearer should – standing alone – not be required for children, particularly given that these children are not ill and have done nothing wrong that would warrant an infringement of their CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS and bodily autonomy. Promoting use of a non-FDA approved, Emergency Use Authorized mask, is unwarranted and ILLEGAL. This mandate is in direct conflict with Section 360bbb-3€(1)(A)(ii)(I-III), which requires the wearer to be informed of the option to refuse the wearing of such “device.” Misrepresenting the use of a mask as being intended for antimicrobial or antiviral protection, and/or misrepresenting masks for use as infection prevention or reduction is a deceptive practice under the FTC. It is clear, there is no waiver of liability under deceptive practices, even under a state of emergency. As such, forcing children to wear masks, or similarly forcing use any other non-FDA approved medical product without the child’s (or the child’s parental) consent, is ILLEGAL and Immoral.

     Drop the mandate or every school board member will sign a liability form stating that you knowingly and willingly choose to disregard every (Clinton School District) students federal and state protected right to reasonable accommodations for his/her expressive physiological condition and understand that you are assuming responsibility and liability thereto. 

     This letter serves as official notice that WE, THE PEOPLE, and our children, do NOT consent to being forced to wear a mask! We demand our rights to have the option to choose! We, the people, (every person on this petition and parent of children the attend Clinton Schools) will proceed to taking legal action if needed.

     Please help us fight for our children's rights and their future by signing the petition today and SHARE with all friends and family! If we do not stand up NOW, it will soon be too late to stand up for what we have fought so long and hard for! Thank you!
