Resolution banning mask, vaccine mandates being considered by Jackson County commissioners

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : "If a business says you must wear a mask, and someone walks in without a mask, that business still should be protected by our law enforcement," Mahoney said.
48% : And, while commissioners can't ban these mandatory practices throughout the county, the resolution does look to strip county funding and resources for enforcement of these COVID-19 mandates throughout the county, Bair said.
47% : Commissioner Daniel Mahoney, D-District 7, said he's against the resolution due to his concerns that it could take resources, such as law enforcement, away from schools and businesses.
37% : The resolution also encourages the Jackson County Sheriff's Office to make enforcement of these mandates its lowest priority.
