DODGE CITY, Kan.
A mayor in western Kansas has resigned because of threats she received after publicly supporting a mask mandate.
Dodge City Mayor Joyce Warshaw said Tuesday she was concerned about her safety after encountering aggression, including threats via phone and email, after she was quoted in a USA Today article Friday supporting a mask mandate, the Dodge City Globe reported.
“I understand people are under a lot of pressure from various things that are happening around society like the pandemic, the politics, the economy, so on and so forth, but I also believe that during these times people are acting not as they normally would,” Warshaw said.
