I wouldn’t say our community is working “together” exactly. We have plenty of Covid kool aid drinkers and mask wearers. We’re about evenly divided I’d guess. But some of us meet weekly and strategize. We go to the Board meetings and make our views known. We put up signs around town and do petitions and community forums to educate people.
Our local health dept has a few bureaucrats that are loving their new power, and our DA is eager to show everyone who’s boss. But our Board of Supervisors have demonstrated both courage and common sense. By being vocal and active, our group has given the Board the public support they needed to resist the State.
