Senator Gallivan Comments on Governor's Mask Mandate

Patrick M. Gallivan

December 10, 2021

Senator Patrick M. Gallivan (R-C, Elma) issued the following statement: 

The governor’s latest mandate that businesses require proof of vaccination or masks for customers and employees goes too far.  Businesses have been struggling to stay open and this action will push many of them closer to the brink.  We must ensure citizens are fully informed and allow them to make their own health decisions in consultation with their physician...as we do with other health related matters. 

I urge my colleagues to support my proposed legislation, which would require such mandates issued by an executive branch of government be approved by the respective legislative branch.  We must restore our system of checks and balances.”
