It looks like one governor is standing up against Biden’s mask mandate.

Iowa’s Republican governor Kim Reynolds is taking a stand against Biden’s mask mandate and has declared to revoke Biden’s executive order which forces people to wear masks.

Reynold’s decision is what every governor should do!

Fox News covered Reynold’s decision and had this to say:

Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds on Friday lifted coronavirus restrictions that had been in place in the state since before Thanksgiving.

The Republican’s latest health proclamation won’t require Iowans to wear masks while inside public buildings and removes limits on both indoor and outdoor gatherings.

“I strongly encourage that all businesses or other employers remaining open with in-person operations take reasonable measures under the circumstances of each establishment to ensure the health of employees, patrons and members of the public, including social distancing practices, increased hygiene practices and other public health measures to reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19,” the proclamation said, according to KCCI-TV in Des Moines.

The order goes into effect at midnight Sunday.

ABC 9 News chipped in too:

Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds signed a new public health proclamation on Friday rolling back all COVID restrictions on Iowa businesses.

Effective at 12:01 A.M. on Sunday, the proclamation removes mask requirements, gathering limits, and restrictions on businesses.

β€œThe proclamation strongly encourages Iowans, businesses and organizations to take reasonable public health measures consistent with guidance from the Iowa Department of Public Health,” said Pat Garrett, a spokesperson for the Governor’s Office.

As Biden continues to pump out large amounts of Executive Orders be on the lookout for Staes pushing back!
