I am bewildered by states lifting mask mandates. Masking is an effective tool to prevent the spread of #COVID19-this is Public Health 101! Just because we see a decline in motor vehicle deaths doesn't mean we remove seat belt laws. Why is this any different?!

Juxtapose this commitment with the DC map of where car ownership is low/people are killed by cars/poor transit (lots of it all east of the river).

got it right--using social distancing times to push #TransitEquity & bicycling. Here in DC, not so much :(
