State Rep. Andrew Chesney, R-Freeport, has filed legislation to counter Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s recent order that requires masks in private and public schools, regardless of vaccination status.

If I didn’t know better, I’d think somebody over there may have been trying to have a little fun at Rep. Chesney’s expense. Check out his exposed nose in the accompanying pic

Whether intentional on their part or not, we can have our own fun. Do try to keep it clean, however. Thanks.
