I am writing to oppose the proposed mask ban in New York. Such a policy not only infringes on individual expression but also aligns with efforts to expand a surveillance state, echoing GOP-driven agendas that undermine personal freedoms. Masks are more than a public health tool—they are a form of self-expression and autonomy. Restricting their use disregards these values and sets a dangerous precedent for limiting personal choice. New York has always championed liberty and progressive policies. I urge you to reject this measure and uphold the rights and freedoms of all New Yorkers.
