Joint statement condemning plan to prematurely open county

Dear neighbors,

Today I joined with colleagues throughout Lancaster County in signing the statement below condemning the plan to prematurely reopen the county. We are facing a crisis that requires us to put politics aside, come together as a community, and let facts and science guide our decision making.

I share the goal of reopening Lancaster County as quickly as possible, but doing so without consulting public health professionals and without examining the data threatens the health of our neighbors.

Best,

Tom
