I would like to be able to stay out past 10 pm. Following the covid -19 guidelines, I strongly believe the overwhelming majority of New York State residents are responsible enough to stay out past 10 pm while maintaining social distancing. By this point New York State residents very much understand the severity of covid-19 yet also know how to prevent it when out in a public establishment, wearing masks, washing hands, and limiting the amount of people dining indoors. However more people are getting vaccinated, and or have covid-19 antibodies. Myself and many others feel 12am is a happy medium for the residents of New York and our Government to agree on. Extending the curfew 2 hours longer, will help many struggling businesses throughout our state, that desperately need our support. Of course people will continue following guidelines and wearing their masks, as I have seen at every establishment I have attended since the beginning of the covid outbreak. In addition, I have friends and family that work till 8pm some nights, that does not leave many people nearly enough time to enjoy a late dinner or a drink. Let’s come to a agreement to change the 10 pm curfew to 12 am or atleast 11pm. The overwhelming majority of residents will continue to maintain forms of social distancing when out and about. Politics aside, its time to consider extending the curfew to meet the best intentions of business owners and NY state residents.
