    I fully support the residents of our city being able to receive a mask if they ask for one. The more readily accessible they are, the better.

    Masks do not help enough to be required to wear, they also make it harder to breath. People with prior health conditions or trouble breathing would not be able to wear them for extended periods of time. Requiring masks to be worn goes against our constitutional rights.

    I support this. People should not choose to put their life at risk or purchase a mask and forgo something else that is necessary.

    Providing Milwaukeeans with masks will help prevent the spread of COVID 19, especially in neighborhoods which might not have access to masks or mask production.

    A mandate means that the City should provide masks to everyone in order to follow it, east decision. Honestly this should automatically be sent to every household regardless of "request", then no one has an excuse to not follow the mandate.

    Yes, I fully support the mask mandate and believe it makes should be made accessible to everyone regardless of income or location. Privilege should not matter when it comes to public safety.

    Masks have proven to be a fundamentally necessary item in minimizing the spread of COVID. Please support this.

    I think this pandemic has already greatly hurt Milwaukee, businesses and a restaurants alike I can guarantee if this mandate passes I will not be shopping or go to any restaurants in the city of Milwaukee, and will take my business to the surrounding cities

    If the city provides mask & you were talking about the cloth ones, those are the worst ones and some gets sick with covid because they do not filter out the virus, Is the city responsible? If someone dies from hypoxia from low oxygen levels because they have to where a mask for 8 hours a day with out OSHA approval, is the city responsible ????? Everyone is going to wear a mask already has one

    Absolutely support 100%. We need this as responsible citizens to stop the spread, and show people how to wear them correctly NOW.

    We must make masks an accessible tool to everyone in this city to prevent the spread of COVID. I fully support this resolution.

    This is very helpful to those who may not have resources right now to obtain one.
    Great idea, and then nobody can make excuses that they don’t have one :)

    People don't wear them correct and they litter with them.

    If we can get everyone an easy access to these masks it will make the mandate run more smooth.
