Say NO to Costco
Say NO to Costco
The Issue
Today I travelled to Costco with my children to buy life sustaining food. I was notified upon entering the store that Costoco would be forcing ALL customers to wear a "face make" or face shield starting on 11/16/2020. We continued into the store without masks because we NEEDED food to eat. We were then harassed by a store employee who took it upon herself to ask "where is your mask?", I politely stated that we are medically exempt from wearing "face masks". She continued to harass us by questioning whether or not myself and my children were all medically exempt from wearing homemade "face masks".
We live in Pennsylvania. Per Governor Wolf's order, persons who have medical conditions that exclude them from wearing masks will be permitted into "life sustaining businesses." Employees are NOT permitted to question persons about their medical conditions or exclude them from entering their business.
I am greatly disappointed, disheartened and left feeling ostracized by fellow citizens and businesses. I would hope that a national corporation like Costco would support ALL of their members and accommodate their needs.
I would ask that everyone take a stand against Costco and ALL companies that are discriminating and violating the American Disability Act.
