Illinois remains one of six states with continuing mask mandate – Center Square

The mandate was brought into effect by an Executive Order. State Rep. Niemerg said that if this decision was up to a vote, lawmakers, and the people they represent, could have a say on the matter. "I want this on the record so we can see the bad votes that they would make in support of the Governor. But I also do believe that many legislators that would think twice about keeping the mask mandate intact."

He claims to be mandating masks to keep Illinoisans safe – B.S. It’s a power grab and he’s not likely to let go anytime soon.

I stopped listening long ago – as did many in my region (4). I have not had one store, bar, restaurant etc. say a word to me about not wearing a mask. And the positivity rate remains well below JB’s threshold. Go figure.

Well, we all knew that JB would drag it out long enough so that he could keep the mandate enforced through the holidays. Next stop on the Pritzker mandate train, January!
