Description
Lewis County Commissioners unanimously passed a resolution Tuesday to exempt county employees from future mask mandates enacted by state or federal officials.
“The will of the people right now, they're not for mandates," said Commissioner Sean Swope, who introduced the resolution.
Swope said commissioners voted, unanimously, to leave mask use up to individuals.
Despite a recent rise in COVID-19 cases reported by the Centers for Disease Control, a spokesperson for Governor Jay Inslee said there are no discussions at the state level to return to mask mandates.
