Congresswoman Gwen Moore Statement on Wisconsin Supreme Court Decision to Strike Down Mask Mandate

“Another reckless and irresponsible decision from our state’s Supreme Court. From striking down the mask mandate to ruling against our state’s stay-at-home order to blocking Governor Evers from delaying our in-person primary, the GOP judges on the state Supreme Court have subordinated science to dangerous partisan fervor against public health and safety during this pandemic.  Even though partisan judges refuse to act in the interests of all Wisconsinites, we all must do our part to protect ourselves and others from COVID-19.

I encourage all Wisconsinites to continue wearing their masks when they leave the house. COVID-19 does not go away just because our mask mandate did. This is why it’s also critical that every local government leader support measures that will help keep residents safe and healthy.”
