Schools in Minnesota will make their own decisions on masks

Minnesota school districts will be left to decide if they’ll require that students be masked when they return to classrooms in the fall. That’s because the state won’t mandate use. Also, former police officer Kim Potter opposes the livestreaming of her trial in the killing of Daunte Wright. This is the MPR News afternoon update for Wednesday, July 14, 2021. Hosted by Nancy Lebens. Theme music by Gary Meister.
