The D.C. mayor’s most recent ordinance mandating the wearing of facemasks in public applies to…well, pretty much everyone.

Everyone, that is, except government employees.

The lengthy mandate, implemented on July 22 and covering a multitude of illogical dos-and-don’ts (you must wear a mask while distancing from others on the patio of a public swimming pool, but you don’t have to wear one when you’re crammed up near them in the water, for example), specifically carves out “persons in the judicial or legislative branches of the District government” as a special segment of society not required to wear a face mask while at their jobs.
