By the numbers: Overall, 69% of respondents support their local school districts requiring everyone — including teachers, students, and administrators — to wear masks in schools. But that was true for just 44% of Republicans, compared with two-thirds of independents and nine in 10 Democrats.

64% of respondents support state and local government mandates requiring masks to be worn in all public areas.

Just one in three Americans supports state laws prohibiting local governments from requiring masks (Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott issued executive orders banning mask requirements in schools).

But that number masks a big partisan gap: 57% of Republicans support those laws, compared to just 16% of Democrats.
