As the most reliable and balanced news aggregation service on the internet, DML News App offers the following information published by Fox News:
The Oregon Health Authority (OHA) assembled a Rules Advisory Committee (RAC) earlier this week to address a permanent indoor mask mandate in the state. Oregon is one of a few states that still retain one nearly two years into the pandemic.
The committee included several community stakeholders, including representatives from the hospitality industry, the business sector, and faith communities, according to local ABC affiliate KATU.
The article goes on to state the following:
Dr. Paul Cieslak, the medical director for communicable diseases and immunizations with OHA, explained to KATU that OHA’s potential “permanent” indoor mask mandate is not necessarily permanent because it can be repealed.
When OHA formally proposes the “permanent” indoor mask mandate, the public will be allowed to comment on the proposal before it is officially implemented.
Cieslak explained, “Permanent means indefinite. It doesn’t necessarily mean permanent. We can repeal it as well, but we are only allowed to have a temporary rule for 180 days, and anything that goes beyond 180 days, we cannot extend it.”
Yes — that may sound alarming. Here’s what you need to know about it:
-The current rule is temporary. It can’t be in place more than 180 days.
-Making the rule permanent allows the state to keep the rule.
-The rule can be repealed.#LiveOnK2 pic.twitter.com/qEZAeExxu8— Genevieve Reaume (@GenevieveReaume) December 3, 2021
INDOOR MASKING IN OREGON — It’s likely here to STAY.

Oregon – one of only a handful of states that still has an indoor mask mandate – is working to make that rule permanent.

Oregon, the next Australia.
These idiots are beyond hysterical.
Won’t be long Oregon will set up concentration camps for the unvaccinated!!
Well I guess I’ll never be visiting Oregon
Stupid liberals
Do all of America a favor you LIBERAL Oregon nuts, stay in Oregon. That go for the whole west coast.
Not all of us are liberal nuts. Liberals took over my state 20 years ago when mail in voting became legal. I’m just sick what happened to my former beautiful state.
I’m with Julie. Not all of us are liberals! Mail in voting changed the dynamic 20 years ago. We are a great state being held hostage by Portland liberals. Many of us pray daily that sanity and conservative values prevail.
Logical fallacy of generalization. You should know better than to paint with a broad brush.
Dumbass liberals! It’s not just for California anymore.
Praying they wake up and realize that the masks are making people sick.
Exactly!!!
People need fresh air to build their immune systems not mask filled bacteria and the government needs to stop censoring proven early treatments that keep people out of the hospital!! There is infection and then there is inflammation. It’s the inflammation part that is killing people
Yep I’m sure Oregon is a Demon’Crat state that’s why! Why not right? Mask forever and ever! Someone’s gotta cold no problem but mild Omi shut the whole world down everywhere, stay in your homes, hide under the bed, and make sure you mask while there. Everyone move to Florida
Hell no dont want these idiots in my state.Florida is my free zone
Only because Oregon is run by a bunch of leftist bafoons!
Don’t be a sap. It will never be repealed.
If you read what they said- they just use the word “permanent” to make ppl think it is; indefinite does not mean that and it can only go 180 days and after that can’t be extended. That’s it. I live in S. Oregon in a county where Sheriff publicly stated they won’t enforce the states mask mandate. I don’t wear a mask anywhere. This is a conservative Christian area like other rural parts of the state. Greater Portland area and down to Eugene taints everything. If you haven’t noticed Antifa does a lot of actions and disruption here bc it’s still a city of primarily white ppl. They have to destroy the homogenous cities with lg white populations. Minneapolis used to be one. WA state and CA are worse than here. I can’t even stand to go into CA now, it feels more oppressive than here for sure.
You pay for what (They are to dumb to be called who) you elected.
So thankful to be in Florida.
