"Wearing a face covering is an act of compassion," said Issaquah Mayor Mary Lou Pauly. "It shows you care about our community, local businesses and front-line workers. We're excited to partner with King County to ensure every community member has several face coverings readily available."

The county purchased 25 million disposable and reusable face coverings to distribute to local community members and organizations amid the continuing coronavirus pandemic.
