If you're as disgusted as I am at the NC right-wing overreach proposing to revert us to an outdated1950s mask ban, it's not too late to let your legislators know!

Do not allow this or anything remotely like it, #NorthCarolina.
For so many reasons.

2024 May 15NC #HB237, a BAN ON WEARING MASKS IN PUBLIC, passes Senate 30-15.
The bill removes an exemption allowing masking for medical reasons.
Republican supporters say it will not criminalize mask wearing for health reasons but Democrats and the state's legislative analyst say it does.
