Republicans and their allies have filed more anti-mask lawsuits than they have passed bills to help workers, families, farmers, and small businesses affected by COVID-19.
Wearing a face covering helps protect our communities, including those at higher risk for severe illness and workers who frequently come into contact with others like nurses, grocers, and first responders.
Republicans at every turn have challenged efforts to keep people healthy and safe.
The Wisconsin Republican Party treasurer was quoted as saying:
“If the leader of the free world can get this, I think it’s kind of silly for the rest of us to pretend a $3 handkerchief from Walmart is going to protect us.”
The truth is, Republicans are getting COVID-19 because they refuse to wear masks as they host covid-unsafe rallies, fundraisers, and official events.
