Five Vermont Towns Opt to Extend Mask Mandate Another Month

Five towns in Vermont opted to extend their mask mandates another month, nearly two years after the start of the Chinese coronavirus pandemic.

The Vermont legislature wrapped up 2021 by passing a measure allowing local governments to impose their own mask requirements. Republican Gov. Phil Scott emphatically approved the measure, pitching it as a way to avoid issuing a statewide mask mandate. In a November letter to members of the legislature, Scott said the legislation had to be “limited to facial covering requirements indoors within a municipality’s jurisdiction (except schools, which shall remain governed by the policies set forth by the local school board) for the specific, and exclusive, purpose of addressing COVID-19.”

As I recall, it’s illegal for someone in Vt. to shoot
someone from NH on Sunday. Could be the other way...

CT has done the same thing. Leave it up to the Mayors, Selectmen, etc. New Haven jumped on board in Aug 2021 and has no plans to drop it on their own.

Several other towns and cities put one in place, but not until after the busy Christmas and New Year shopping, dining, etc. season. Science!

Under the legislation, towns can reevaluate the mandates on a 30-day basis. As a result, five towns opted to extend their mask mandate another month. Those towns include Brattleboro, Essex, Williston, South Burlington, and Richmond.

West Lebanon in NH has its own mask mandate. People there in the liberal Upper Valley (spill over from Dartmouth) are still driving around masked up alone in their cars.

There’s a far higher incidence of mask wearing there than in other parts of the state.

Masks make it easier to spot the libtards.

Wake up Vermont! These cities are ripe for CRT anti-white racism, are ripe for Defunding the Police, and BLM Antifa rioting.

These cities also attract Illegal border jumper Welfare creeps like big magnets.

If you live in one of these five. Flee!

The Dems and the RINOs will ensure it will only be going to get worse there. And the Leftists will consider you centers for experimentation and perversions yet to come.

Flee!
