Passenger Trains > Unions request nat'l mask policyDate: 07/28/20 17:07 Unions request nat'l mask policy Author: Lackawanna484 The association of transportation unions seeks a single national mask rule for passengers and asks the DOT to issue it. DOT Secretary Chao is not inclined to do that.
Rail, air, bus workers are in the association. Washington Post has a limit on "free" articles: https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/trafficandcommuting/labor-unions-petition-transportation-department-for-a-mandatory-mask-rule/2020/07/28/0cc36306-d0f0-11ea-9038-af089b63ac21_story.html?hpid=hp_national1-8-12_virusmaskpetition-535pm%3Ahomepage%2Fstory-ans Posted from Android Date: 07/28/20 17:31 Re: Unions request nat'l mask policy Author: goduckies National policies are stupid.

Places with few cases took few precautions, and people kept traveling from highly infected areas to those less infected areas. Contrast our approach to countries like Italy and China, that imposed full national lockdowns and travel suspensions. Today they have far lower rates of infection and life much closer to the norm before the pandemic. Dave Date: 07/28/20 18:11 Re: Unions request nat'l mask policy Author: goduckies DavidP Wrote:

That's nuts. And yes we are not an authoritative state even though you want it to be. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 07/28/20 18:12 by goduckies.
