WOOD COUNTY, WI (OnFocus) – In a decisive move, the Wood County Board demonstrated support for the community’s sentiments regarding future mandates related to masking, vaccinations, and business closures. The resolution, passed during Tuesday’s Board meeting, serves as a declaration that the people of Wood County will not accept any further mandates of this nature.
The resolution, proposed by Health & Human Services Committee, is a non-binding statement that carries no legal weight but aims to communicate a clear message to municipalities, the county, and the State of Wisconsin. The sentiment expressed in the resolution underscores the community’s stance against what is perceived as draconian measures and seeks to protect individual freedoms and human rights to bodily autonomy. It follows a similar resolution Marathon County passed previously this year. Other Wisconsin counties have also passed or are working towards resolutions.
The resolution received substantial support from Board members, with a 14-5 vote in favor of its approval. The strong backing underscores the resonance of the community’s concerns and the Board’s acknowledgment of its duty to reflect the sentiments of those it represents.
While this resolution does not change any existing policies, it stands as a symbolic testament to the community’s desire for a measured approach to future mandates and a commitment to individual freedoms.
Wood County remains committed to open dialogue and collaboration with its constituents, and the Board encourages continued engagement on matters that impact the well-being and values of the community. Find Wood County Board member contact information at this link.
