Colorado’s governor thinks it’s stupid to not wear a mask. Why isn’t he requiring them? - Coloradoan

Gov. Jared Polis really, really wants you to wear a mask. In fact, he thinks you’re being stupid if you don’t put one on when you’re out in public. 

He just doesn’t want to force you to cover your nose and mouth — at least not yet.

As a growing number of states and Colorado counties and cities require mask-wearing, Polis has stopped short of issuing a statewide mandate requiring Coloradans to put on a face covering when they are out and about. 

In mid-May, the governor issued an order requiring workers at essential Colorado businesses and critical government jobs to wear masks. But leaders in other states — both Democrats and Republicans — have gone a step further in recent weeks to require mask wearing for everyone any time they are in public and cannot practice social distancing.

The new requirements come as COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations are rising across the nation, including in Colorado. In lieu of Polis’ action, cities and counties have issued their own requirements.
