Without city intervention, it'll be the service workers who become the de facto enforcers of the mask requirement. Workers can't risk their safety when it comes to enforcing mask use. We need people trained to ensure public safety.
Email your legislators: https://t.co/dqforVyGoi
When buildings reopen, they should be required to be cleaned daily by cleaners with proper materials, PPE, appropriate training & the ability to voice concerns.
