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.

Defund all welfare programs. Make people responsible for their own actions.

SNAP is primarily funded by the U.S. federal government through congressional appropriations, with the USDA providing the funds, and states administering the program and covering their share of administrative costs.

Trump won this. SCOTUS ruled in favor of Trump.

Trump basically has no say in this, it's on the shoulders of Congress. Might want to study what all the 111th Congress did back in 2009-11... this is all about payback.

Zaos Gonzolez

Spend the money on something else. Send missiles to israel instead.

Toasty

Its all a game both sides are playing with real people in the middle. Trump should step aside and tell congress this mess is all theirs.

Max

Schumer knows this is all on the backs of the democrats.
