I am a citizen of Rexburg Idaho and I would like to let you guys know what I think about Ordinance 1243.
This ordinance is completely and totally unnecessary. First of all, The CDC has already declared that the masks everyone
wears are completely ineffective. Secondly, this ordinance is a gross overreach of the power the good people of Rexburg
have given you. Having a fine given to someone who doesn’t where an ineffective mask is absolutely not within your
power to do. A parallel to this would be creating an ordinance that fines people for not getting the flu shot. The flu can
be and is more deadly than COVID-19. Lastly, if this ordinance goes through you are, effectively, forcing people to buy
these masks. Are you going to pay for those expense with the taxpayers money? Don’t not pass this ordinance.
