These states running out of options
All 11 need full public masking order
All 11 need ban on indoor bars, restaurants, clubs, other indoor gatherings including non-essential retail

Bold action now for so many reasons
Want one?
Bold action now means may be a chance for schools to open later this fall. May be
But waiting means none of these states will be able to keep schools open
We'd be giving up on our kids altogether
And that is not acceptable
