Candice Keller wants a mask sanctuary. Butler County says no Amber Jayanth
A former Ohio state representative is pressuring the Butler County Board of Commissioners to create a so-called mask sanctuary that would protect those who do not want to follow Ohio’s mask mandate.
Candice Keller brought up the issue at the board’s meeting on Monday, expressing her frustration with the mask order that is now 10 months old.
“In what universe is it your business what I’m wearing and what I’m not wearing,” said Keller, adding she’s tired of wearing a mask.
Commissioner Donald Dixon said to Keller on Thursday, citing an opinion directly from the Butler County Prosecutor, “We have no legislative authority. None. Zero.”
