Kimmy says local officials don't have authority to order mask wearing

Then what the FUCK are you waiting for Kimmy?

Muscatine's mayor and other local officials in Iowa don't have the authority to require residents use masks to halt spread of the coronavirus, Gov. Kim Reynolds said Tuesday during a news conference in Urbandale.

Asked about Muscatine Mayor Diana Broderson's order, which she announced Sunday, Reynolds said local officials need the governor's approval to implement such rules.

Because Reynolds has a public health proclamation in effect, a local official can't implement requirements that conflict with the state rules, the governor said.
