Representative Vicky Hartzler (r) [2016 file photo].

This morning:

Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
“Rules for thee, but not for me.” -Texas Democrats

While everyday Americans are required to wear masks on a plane, Texas Democrats skirted the rules as they abandoned their state and jetted to DC. Now, some are infected with COVID-19.

Disgraceful.
[….]
8:36 AM · Jul 19, 2021

Pearl clutching.

Some of the responses:

Your state has 25% more residents than mine, but FIVE TIMES the covid deaths and THREE times as many cases. Can’t imagine why, what with you focusing on super important stuff going on in Texas.

Yes, it’s going so well here in #Missouri that our electeds can take time out to criticize how other vaccinated people act. #SlickVick revels in misinformation. #GOPDeathCult

Why are you talking about Texas when Missourians are dying of covid-19? If you believe masks reduce the spread so much, why aren’t you advocating for them here? Do something to help Missouri fight covid-19!

Are you vaccinated? Because they all are. Are you now advocating masks? Because that would be a great PSA for Cass County right about now because there are a lot of people infected with #DeltaVariant right here in Cass Cty & Missouri. I would guess most are your constituents [….]

The utter lack of self-reflection evidenced by MO R’s-really, almost all R’s-never ceases to amaze.
I cannot fathom the mental gymnastics it must take to send a tweet like this. Think what could be accomplished if you encouraged Missouri to get vaccinated instead. [….]

You aren’t even from Texas, I’m sure missouri has covid cases you should actually be worried about…[….]

We’re I on a charter flying with folks who are also vaccinated, I’d do the same. As would you.

Still and all, this shiny new advocacy of masks is a turn for you. Congratulations?

Missouri has a lower percentage of residents vaccinated than Texas does.

Maybe you should turn your focus towards the health of your own constituents?

So now you’re advocating FOR masks? It’s difficult to keep up.

they were vaxxed and aboard a chartered plane. Only commercial has to mask up.

And yet @GovParsonMO travels the state, WITHOUT A MASK, to celebrate Missouri while Delta roars.

Damn people are getting sick and dying in Missouri and this woman thinks this is cute

When you’re more concerned about your GOP team and winning the news cycle than about your constituents…
Those on the plane are fully vaccinated, and behaving within CDC guidelines.
Your dishonest post will encourage unvaccinated not to wear masks, which will spread COVID-19.

Missouri is getting mauled by COVID because of inaction at the state level, but sure, post silly little nonsense to deflect from the fact that Vicky does nothing for her district.

So you’re saying masks work?

So you’re saying masks work?

That’s right. Now please share your outrage about Fox News’s ant-vaccine commentaries.

Unlike you, they are doing their jobs & representing the choices their constituents want. No masks are required in private, private jet there; no masks required for the vaccinated, all vaccinated there. Unlike what you and ol’ Mike Parsons are doing for MO. Spreading it around.

Your district is burning with COVID-Delta. Get your head out of Texas. #Missouri needs a leader to stop the spread before another year of hospitals over capacity, sickness, death & zoom school.

Representative, hospitals in your district are filling up with Covid patients from all over the state in part due to dozens of rural Missouri hospitals closing in the last 20 years. And this is your chosen outrage of the day? Good grief.

What’s disgraceful is the surge of COVID-19 cases right here in our own state, the battle our hospitals and healthcare centers are facing every single day, all because you and your cronies refuse to advocate for vaccinations, masking, and public safety. YOU are disgraceful.

Where are your tweets encouraging your constituents to get vaccinated?

How are the Missouri vaccinations going? Are you helping save more of your constituents by giving them good/true vaccine information?

They were on a private plane and vaccinated. I am not sure you understand things.

The Delta variant is ravaging your state and you aren’t doing a damn thing to get people vaccinated.

Why are you minding Texas’ business? Your own state is a disaster rn ffs.

So now you care about masks and vaccination or are you just a ‘crisis actor’. Make up your mind what you are actually for then let us know.

Hey, newsflash, you’re from Missouri. Quit worrying about Texans and worry about how YOUR state of Missouri is on fire with the Delta variant. Why don’t you advocate for masks and vaccines here? This tweet is disgraceful.

While people in your district are dying because they believe BS about the vaccine and Covid. Meanwhile these people where vaccinated and have mild symptoms. See the difference, honey?

We all remember back before vaccines when the Rs in Jeff City refused masks and caused a wide-spread breakout back during our fall/winter wave. Just because you treat your constituents like they are all big dumb dummies, doesn’t mean they are. #facts #COVIDIOT

Hey Vicky, how are things going in Missouri? It looks like you’ve got a shit show going on in your state. One of the lowest vaccinated states in the country. Shouldn’t you help those people. What are you doing to help them? Your @GOP party is killing people. Sit down.

You want disgraceful?
Look in the mirror.
Advocate in favor of vaccination.

Did you wear a mask? Did you support mask wearing? Did you support the insurrection? Did you vote against impeachment of a president who supported and instigated a government coup? Have you been vaccinated? We have a lot of questions, miss Vicky. #HoldATownHalk

Holy hypocrite! Maybe try focusing on Missouri? Just a thought.

You’re a hypocrite. The virus is killing the unvaccinated and you do nothing in your own state

Why don’t you worry about the Delta variant spreading in your own state and stop with the faux pearl clutching about Texas Democrats. Sit down and shut up!

Missouri is in the toilet because of idiots like you. Resign. Go away.

“Texas, it’s like a whole other country”

It’s in his nature

Josh Hawley (r) [2016 file photo].

On Friday:

Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
A moment of candor from Jen Psaki, in which she refers to the monopoly social media companies as “public platforms,” as in arms of the government
[….]
2:07 PM · Jul 16, 2021

As always, there is much hilarity in the responses:

‘Public platforms’ doesn’t mean ‘arms of govt.’ It means platforms that are open to use by members of the public who agree to abide by the platform owner’s terms of use.
But you know that, don’t you ….

A “private” platform is a closed one, in which, say, employees of the same company communicate and share information for work. Or, you know, the secret group some folks might have participated in to plan Jan 6.

We see what you did there.

Public-platform doesn’t mean arm-of-govt. It means platform open to use by members of public who agree to abide by platform owner’s terms of use
Private business voluntarily cooperating w/govt to solve pressing public issue doesn’t mean business is arm of govt
But you know that

Don’t you need to push more people for vaccination in Missouri? Oh, I forgot you don’t live in that state.

Heh. The third Senator from Virginia (January 5, 2021)

“Monopoly” of “companies” – mono is supposed to mean 1, and public means available to anyone… ugh

Hawley says if he had been there he would have raised his fist in hopes of helping incite yet another insurrection!

Doesn’t mean that all. But continue to speak against big tech while using their platforms.

If she said “social media platforms” you would have accused her of being socialist.

Stores are “open to the public” which means you can go in and shop unless you give them a reason to escort you out or call the cops. Does that make them “arms of government”?

Oh give me a break guy. She means “public” in the sense that everything people write on there can be seen by the public. As in the posts they write are not private. But I’m sure you know that. Your spin for the sake of confusing people and holding onto your own power is showing.

Public, as what is published is available to all. Platform, as in platform.

And your point is…?

There is none.

Like open to the public. Like a store.

They ARE public platforms. They are open to the public within the rules established. That doesn’t make them non-private.

Sounds like you want interfere with private companies and do a little “cancel culture” on them.

None of these platforms are owned by the US Government. They broadcast publicly.

Josh, just can it. @PressSec owns everyone on every topic. I wouldn’t go to a debate with her.

Pass the popcorn.

Proof that one should have some appropriate prerequisites to run for federal offices.

Lol public platforms means a platform for the public can speak out, NOT the arm of a government. Where do you get THAT definition?

That’s what you took away? You worked hard on that spin.
Why not do something useful instead?

Lmao you’ll never be president

Imagine being Peter Doocy waking up each morning and thinking he’s so gonna own the libs with the question he plans. Then every day faceplanting himself

Then imagine Josh Hawley thinking that Peter Doocy the Fox nepotism hire is some sort of blazing intellectual tour de force.

This is all you’ve got? A turn of phrase from the Press Secretary is your whole justification for nationalizing a private enterprise? I see why you’ve never actually tried a case, Josh. You’re very bad at crafting compelling, or even logical and consistent, arguments.

Still missing the point Joshy. Misinformation is killing your constituents.

Planning any treason today?

You make me doubt you graduated elementary school, not just Yale.

Did you ever move back to Missouri?

Heh. The third Senator from Virginia (January 5, 2021)

I don’t think she means what you think she means, insurrectionist.

We need healthcare, quality education, good Union jobs and a clean environment. Nobody gives a shit about this.

The information posted is publicly available made so by a private corporation according to their terms of service. It isn’t “spying” if the data is available publicly. And the government does not ban anyone off these platforms. That help?

I wish I had your job, getting paid by taxpayers to bitch about twitter on twitter all day.

Can everyone say “Dunning Kruger”?

Good, because that’s what Hawley suffered from.

And in turn, we ALL suffer for it.

We should rename the country the Divided States of ‘Murika

Nice try Josh. To be a “public platform” a communication vehicle does not have to be an “arm of government.” You know that, yet you put it out to the gullible, low-info Trump/MAGA/GQP base. They’ll believe it although anyone with a double-digit IQ will call it out as BS.

A public platform is not an arm of the government.

What do you gain by displaying such ignorance?

Asking for a country.

I take it you didn’t do well in English classes.

Public platform doesn’t mean arms of government. Stop spreading misinformation

How does someone with such a low IQ pass Harvard? Did Daddy make a big donation to get you through law school? Hey, it worked for Trump. Public Josh means open and available to the public, not owned or managed by the government.

“…Now I know he went to Yale, I think, or Harvard, one of those, one of those fancy ones…” Senator Claire McCaskill (D) – town hall in Warrensburg – Press Q and A – August 17, 2017 (August 17, 2017)

What would you call them “private platforms”? They are very public–you look at them, I look at them. What is your point? Public does not always mean “government” you allegedly are a “constitutional lawyer” you should know that.

Didn’t people you went to school with say you were a fascist?

You’re really not good at this are you?

Do you really not understand what the “public” setting is when you post on a privately owned corporation’s social media site? Or are you lying to the public… again

How dumb is Josh Hawley? Everyone knows it’s a public platform because it is used by people – the public, but it’s run by a PRIVATE COMPANY and they can set their own conditions for users. If users don’t like the rules, then they don’t have to use the service.

You didn’t have many fiends growing up did you?

Wrong. As usual. Did you pay someone to take your exams for you?

You literally have no clue what your talking about

You lost your argument the moment you posted Peter Doocy.

He’s on a roll.

Tin foil.

Last night, from the U.S. Representative for Missouri’s 8th Congressional District:

Jason Smith @JasonSmithMO
The Biden administration wants to knock down your door KGB-style to force people to get vaccinated. We must oppose forced vaccination!
7:43 PM · Jul 17, 2021

Some of the responses:

Your aide told me on the phone on January 5th that you following the will of the people was “just my opinion”.

Most of the responses are about what a horrible dishonest thing to say to perpetuate a mentality literally killing my fellow Missourians right now.

But on a different note, the KGB never did door to door vaccinations back in the old USSR, not sure where Jason picked that up.

He picked it up right out of his butt

This is a dishonest tweet and is contributing to deaths

They got me walking out my front door on my way to work with one of those net launchers, held me down and gave me the shot. The whole thing was actually very humane.

This kind of rhetoric is not helpful as we seek to counter the rise in Delta COVID-19 cases in Missouri. Vaccinations save lives and must remain nonpartisan; please don’t politicize public health.

Too late.

Can Republicans make a point without lying? Could you even try?

No. No. This has been another edition of short answers to simple questions.

This is so horrible and not true. I hate that you feel you need to propagate this type of message. Power, prestige whatever it is you are seeking is not worth this. I pray you find your way back to truth and common sense.

He can’t go back to a place he’s never been.

This you?

He’s a dumbass.

No, they want to send local community members door to door to speak with their neighbors about the vaccines that are available for free, why getting vaccinated is important, and dispel the misinformation you—a sitting congressman—is spewing into the wind. You should be ashamed.

You know, you could actually be a force for good in American lives if you talked about real things instead of made-up ones.

Is it worth it? Really?

How misleading…. From the guy who represents the district with THE MOST Covid cases at this time, one would think you’d have the decency to recommend vaccinations. But no…. You’d rather let the virus take a toll on your constituents.

And he’s vaccinated himself.

You’ve never answered what you did at the insurrection. We have a picture of you there.

OK. Even assuming that was true (which it absolutely is not) now tell me how many ICU beds are currently available in your district? And how many new cases of COVID in the last week? And of those how many are the Delta variant? What are you doing to oppose THAT?

We must oppose something that isn’t happening so I can win my primary even if it kills all my constituents!!!

If you have to lie to gain political points then you have no point

No they don’t. And you’re already vaccinated

Sir, honest question, is this kind of stuff worth a $174k a year job?

You know this isn’t true. So why say it?

You lie and are a disgrace. Period.

This is a lie. Missouri is a hotbed of illness that’s preventable with a simple vaccine. You are getting people killed you seditious weasel.

It must be wonderful to live in a state where I don’t have to wear a mask, get a vaccine, or really do any critical thinking. I also have the right to watch my neighbors and loved ones gasp their final breaths.

Enjoy!

You are a liar, and you are putting your constituents’ lives at risk

This is patently untrue. Our health care workers need support – not blatant lies.

This is, of course, bullshit.

Covid levels hitting winter highs and more in your state, and you tweet this?

It’s kind of cute that you think the KGB does door-to-door vaccinations

“Make America Great Again” – in Russian.

After that we will force you to look at our fabric swatches and paint cards to choose new window treatments and tasteful color palettes for your walls and funiture.

And they’re really going to go high pressure on the extended warranty for your car.

Wait, is this a parody account?

Sadly, no.

Honestly that kinda sounds badass

That’s not remotely true, but you know that.

The Biden administration wants to take away your birthday cake and ponies! We must oppose pony theft!

And they’ll take your Bibles, too!

I heard the Biden administration is secretly working on an executive order to go door-to-door giving all registered Republicans forced government enemas, can you comment on this?

And on and on…

In 1943:

WEST VIRGINIA STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION ET AL. v. BARNETTE ET AL., 319 U.S. 624

[….]

If there is any fixed star in our constitutional constellation, it is that no official, high or petty, can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics, nationalism, religion, or other matters of opinion or force citizens to confess by word or act their faith therein. If there are any circumstances which permit an exception, they do not now occur to us….

[….]

In the U.S. Constitution:

Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press…

Article VI

…no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.

This afternoon, from the U.S. Representative from Missouri’s 8th Congressional District:

Rep. Jason Smith @RepJasonSmith
The American flag is a symbol of freedom and democracy around the world. If there’s one thing that should unify this country, it is kneeling before God and standing for the flag.
1:03 PM · Jul 17, 2021

Who’s god?

Bad combover. Check. Too long red tie. Check. Orange spray tan. Check. Tiny hands. Check. Cluelessness. Check…

Which flag, again?

“Россия” (Russia) – a variant of the Russian presidential flag.

Some of the responses:

OK. Exactly what god(s) should all kneel before to unify our country?
For those of us that don’t believe in any god, are we incapable of ever being patriotic Americans?

If there’s one thing that should unify this country, it would be getting vaccinated. Spearheaded, of course, by elected officials who prioritize their constituents’ health and the future of this country above personal ambition.

You vaccinated?

The GQP proved that the Flag can also be a weapon to attack police with.

“It’s a symbol of freedom – but I said stand up for it!”

Y’all are funny…

Ummm…. isn’t that 2 things?

No. Stop representing me by pushing religion with your political platform.

No. Nope. Uh uh. Gfy.
I like our constitution and especially the first amendment. I love our secular design. You Christofascists want to destroy the very things I cherish. So, no. [….]

Yep! That’s the one thing. (It’s amazing how little regard you actually have for your constituents).

Nothing says “freedom” like government officials mandating respect for their flag and their God.

If that’s the case, then why did tRump supporters use the flag, with a pole, as a weapon against the Capitol police? You should speak to tRump supporters about this. Quit whining and tweeting and do something constructive.

What unifies us is the right to do that or to choose not to and not be attacked or made to feel like a pariah by elected officials because you believe differently or not at all. You purposely make divisive comments like this. Not everyone in your district is like you.

Well… Don’t you kneel when Trump orders you to swallow?

Bro, I don’t believe in your god so why the fuck would I kneel for something I don’t believe in???

Stop shoving your religion down people’s throat, hypocrite.

Kneeling down before god? Lol you and your cult are all about people kneeling huh? Trump paid Stormy $250k to keep that silent, but you didn’t seem to mind.

Keep religion out of your mouth when you support immoral ass people. Using religion as a way to scare people. Dumbass

Pretty sure that should be 2 completely separate things. One has nothing to do with the other. Those of us who don’t believe in god are not less patriotic than your smug, hypocritical, fake ass

Nationalism and Religion don’t mix you fucking weasel.

Fascist pig.

Oh, wait.

Representative Vicky Hartzler (r) [2016 file photo].

This afternoon:

Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
All Americans deserve to be treated fairly and impartially.

That is why the DOJ must provide answers regarding possible wrongful forms of detainment, including solitary confinement, of individuals who breached the U.S. Capitol on January 6th.

1/3
[….]
3:45 PM · Jul 16, 2021

Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler

Given the harmful physiological and psychological effects of solitary confinement, recent reports on the use of solitary confinement for dozens of the pretrial defendants is alarming.

2/3

Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler

The charges against these individuals do not warrant the use of solitary confinement, a treatment reserved for the most violent of criminals, and suggests that this elevated treatment is politically motivated and warrants answers.

3/3

Uh, they weren’t crossing the street against the traffic light.

Some of the responses:

Trump puts brown kids in cages—Vicky’s silent.

DOJ puts white terrorists in solitary—Vicky won’t leave a comrade behind.

Priorities and loyalties, I guess.

An Appleton City doughboy died in a trench in France during WWI, a Seabee from Conway was maimed in New Guinea during WWII, and an airman from Pleasant Grove died over Korea in 1951 so that @RepHartzler would have the freedom to throw a pityparty for insurrectionists in 2021.

No. Those involved on January 6 violated the Constitution and put hundreds of people in danger. All because you didn’t like the outcome of the election. They deserve to stay in prison until their cases are resolved. Full stop.

Siding with insurrectionists is a really bad choice.

So what she is saying is that she is ok with armed insurrection and death and physical harm as long as it’s not done to her fellow insurrectionist. Got it. Another proud moment for a Missouri political figure geez

When any variation, it has been special treatment.

Welcome to criminal life (a few of you, others welcome back).

Who’s side are you on hartzler ?

“Make America Great Again” – in Russian.

Vicky loves Terrorists

Get bent

Nothing “wrongful” about putting traitors in prison.

Remember your statement afterwards. You called them thugs and called for them to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of ths law. What changed hypocrite?

Are you fucking kidding? If these were BLM protesters or Muslim extremists that stormed the Capital, you would not give a shit about them being held in solitary confinement. These people threatened your life, the lives of the VP and VP-elect, and the rest of Congress.

Crickets. Why do You support Terrorists? #SeditionistHartzler

THEY. ARE. TRAITORS. LIKE YOU.

You’re a disgrace

Have you thanked the Capitol police for saving your life from the MAGA terrorist. You voted NO on a bill that would fund the Capitol police. The Party of MTG, Matt Gaetz and Vicky Hartzler are traitors to America.

You voted for the Insurrection. You are a Traitor.

Vicky is defending domestic terrorist who tried to overturn a fair election. Vicky is a traitor to America.

As an insurrectionist sympathizer, you dont deserve the honor of serving in our government. You are a disgusting, despicable, national disgrace.

Traitor. Stop defending terrorists.

They are insurrectionists. Fuck you for supporting them.

Defend your cult at all costs. Pathetic

Running for something?

Last night, in Missouri:

“You does you.”

Charles Jaco @charlesjaco1
From this evening’s school board meeting at the Francis Howell School District in white flight exurban St. Charles County, MO. These are relatively affluent middle-class suburbanites. This here is the Jan 6 demographic.
[….]
11:16 PM · Jul 15, 2021

Slept through their science, math, and English classes.

Some of the responses:

Hard to change a mind that does not exist in the first place…
[….]

That’s my alma mater! Was it always this bad and I didn’t realize because I was a kid? Surely it’s gotten worse over the trump years right?

I am strongly in support of immigration, and am sure that these people will learn our language as soon as humanly possible

No mind here worth changing..

I’m guessing they did not pass science class…..this uneducated mess right here is why this variant is taking over Missouri. [….]

They failed English as well.

Missouri has a massive amount of selfish & stupid people ruining it for everyone else.

Pathetic, just embarrassingly pathetic.

I would love for anyone to go up to these dolts and ask them to define Marxism….

That do make you think.

The government is spying on us through our toasters…

Tin foil.

On Monday:

Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
So now the Biden Administration wants to get into people’s text messages … to force vaccine compliance and who knows what else

Apparently the tracking microchips aren’t in the vaccine. Time to switch to a rotary dial land line.

Idiot.

Some of the responses:

Everyone needs to be vaccinated. How many dead do you want?

Since when is giving people correct information and offering them help considered “forcing” them to do something?

Where in the text does it say ANY of what you say-force vaccine compliance? Where? Is scaring the base the only way you know how to communicate, Senator?

What is wrong with a text message about how to get to a vaccine? I thought earlier you were praising how fast Trump got the vaccine done and now you don’t want people to take it? Which is it, you can’t have both?

Hey Josh, how’s that Delta Outbreak going in MO? Are you waiting for the Lambda version to arrive too?

Making something available and easier to get is not forcing.

So now the GOP doesn’t want Americans to get vaccinated? Headuptheass is a serious disease and it looks like we have another pandemic on our hands

Do you live in 2002? Are you paying per text?

Heard you were big on technology. Guess that was false

#protip: you can’t vaccinate text messages, mobile phones, etc.

Missouri counties are in the top 20 of USA for covid cases, hospitalizations, and death. Your voters are dying and You have no answers or appropriate response.

The irony is that the Biden administration is encouraging rural conservatives to get this life-saving vaccine, and you’re encouraging them to get this deadly virus.

Stopping the spread of misinformation and saving lives is such a horrible thing.

Those aren’t the text messages you should be worried about Joshy boy

We see what you did there.

Offering information is not force. Try helping America instead of standing in the way.

When undermining the world’s oldest democracy isn’t enough.

So managing public health concerns isn’t easy and I’m not sure where the privacy lines should be drawn but at least thought being put into it is better than a finger pointing Twitter barrage. Nice job as usual telling me something I can read myself.

Great! Conveying public health information is the function of good government. Thank you

That’s not at all what this says Josh.

I get amber alerts automatically. What’s the difference?

They might even start making you wear shoes in restaurants

That’s not what this says.

Your state is doing great. Keep up the good work.

God forbid Americans are informed

Bold of you to come out against Amber Alerts

The day they start “fact checking” my text messages to friends and family is the day I covfefe.

Bet your glad you live in VA now so your family is safe.

Oh the horror! People who want to be vaccinated getting vaccinated!! #Jerk

“To force vaccine compliance”? Did you actually read the thing you posted? It says no such thing. You’re not even a good liar.

Idiot.

Yeah, but Roy Blunt (r) can’t go door to door in Missouri to let people know because Mike Parson (r) wouldn’t like that very much

Pretty strong and unequivocal message from @RoyBlunt as MO continues to deal with more Delta variant cases, especially in SW Missouri:

Roy Blunt (r). Just a step or two…or three behind.

Governor Mike Parson @GovParsonMO
I have directed our health department to let the federal government know that sending government employees or agents door-to-door to compel vaccination would NOT be an effective OR a welcome strategy in Missouri!

To call them clowns is an insult to clowns.

Sadly so

Today:

Christopher Morrison MD @cwmorrisonMD
To the other physicians on my timeline and on Twitter: I can’t stress enough how bad the situation with COVID is here in SW Missouri and there is no apparent end in sight. It’s imperative that you do everything in your power to try and get your community vaccinated.

The most simple message is this: 99.5% of COVID deaths are unvaccinated.

Expertise. Science. Math. Reality.

Here we are.

Get vaccinated.

Wear a damn mask.

Aren’t we special

Today:

City of Chicago
Travel Advisory
Updated 7/13/2021
Based on data as of 7/12/2021

After several weeks with no states on its Travel Advisory, Missouri and Arkansas have been added back to the list amid an increase in COVID-19 cases in some regions of the country. Recent increases pushed the two states back past the mark of 15 cases per day, per 100,000 residents.

Any unvaccinated people traveling from Missouri or Arkansas are advised to obtain a negative COVID-19 test result no more than 72 hours prior to arrival in Chicago or quarantine for a 10-day period upon arrival. CDPH continues to stress the importance of getting vaccinated for COVID, and adherence to all masking guidelines for travel.

In response to the changing dynamics of COVID-19 transmission across the United States, and to support Chicago’s efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19, the City issued a Travel Order in July 2020, applicable to anyone coming into the City of Chicago from designated states with a significant degree of community-wide spread of COVID-19. Anyone traveling from a state on the Orange list was directed to obtain a negative COVID-19 test result no more than 72 hours prior to arrival in Chicago or quarantine for a 10-day period.

On June 1, 2021, for the first time since July 2020, no states were at the 15 cases per 100,000 residents threshold for the orange tier. With three consecutive periods of no states in the Orange tier, the Order transitioned to an Advisory, effective June 29, 2021. Travel restrictions can be reinstated at any time if CDPH sees a surge in cases anywhere. Travelers must still abide by all masking requirements on planes, buses, and trains, as well as in transportation hubs such as airports and stations.

Missouri.

Here we are.

Get vaccinated.

Wear a damn mask.
