I'm 73 with COPD Emphysema& wear plastic gloves and an N 95 facemask. It is a public hazard to got without proper PPE and should be mandated!

It's basically a no-brainer.

Masks will help slow the spread of COVID, and save lives. Small price to pay to stay safe. Much less restrictive than another lockdown.

Larry Myers

Because I can read.

Claudia K

Because it protects others and is not a big deal.

Many people say they should be able to choose whether to cover their faces and that the dangers of COVID-19 are exaggerated.

Government should set recommendations and guidelines that follow science. We should not be punishing business for not being the mask police. I think you would have more buy in from people by giving them the facts and making recommendations, instead of making a bunch of people angry and rebellious.

It would be nice to have Snow like we did when I was a kid back in the 80' we had heavy snows and maybe it would help against the sickness we all are having. It's been a long time since we had a heavy snow or bad winter but it would do the ground some good!!!

Ann Hamlin

Snow is pretty.

Max DeYoung

A good, heavy snow will cut down on drive by shootings. Columbia needs that.

The report should go where Hilary's emails are.

Max DeYoung

The Ethics report was a failed frame job, and it proves his innocence.

Max DeYoung

It also exposes a lot of dishonest Representatives. Most of the House wants to keep this secret.

Robert Walter

His behavior and character matters.
