Thank you for your leadership in keeping our schools open this year! Now, with the statewide mask mandate being struck down, I ask that you continue your leadership tradition by giving students the freedom to choose whether to wear a mask.
I would prefer that the “unmasking” happen with a simple announcement, but I also support the 9-point, parent-proposed plan that allows people to opt in or out in phases, depending on their perceived risk.
If you need more info to help you feel confident that unmasking is safe for our children and our community, please visit embracetheirfaces.org, a site started by CW parents to support unmasking children at school.
Thank you for boldly doing the right thing for our children!

With the WI Supreme Court’s recent decision to strike down the statewide mask mandate, you may get pressure to push for a countywide mask mandate.
I’m writing today to urge you to reject the discredited concept of mask mandates and, as such, also abandon the recommendation for universal masking in the community.
I understand that you are advised to listen only to the CDC, and to ignore credible evidence that disputes their guidelines. However, it is now obvious from real-world results across the globe that masks make no difference in outcomes. I invite you to review the evidence at embracetheirfaces.org, which was started by Barron County parents to propose a plan to unmask children at CWASD schools.
My primary goal is to make masks optional for students in the CWASD. Having your support as the county’s Director of HHS will help our school administrators and board boldly do the right thing for our children.
Thank you.

With the WI Supreme Court’s recent decision to strike down the statewide mask mandate, you may get pressure to formally pass a mask mandate in the legislature.
I’m writing today to urge you to reject the discredited concept of mask mandates and universal masking in the community.
I understand that we are constantly told to listen only to the CDC, and to ignore credible evidence that disputes their guidelines. However, it is now obvious from real-world results across the globe that masks make no difference in outcomes. It’s time to abandon them as a COVID mitigation strategy and turn to focused protection of the most vulnerable.
Thank you.
