Update!! Two law enforcement officers and a health inspector came today and officially shut down this small family BBQ business because the owner refused to mandate masks in his restaurant. Share this everywhere and make sure people sign this petition. They are now threatening other Wells co downtown businesses to comply or shut their doors. SHARE WITH EVERYONE!!!
Matt Yergler, owner of Yergy’s State Road BBQ in Bluffton, IN has taken a stand against Governor Holcomb’s unconstitutional state-wide mask mandate. Yergy’s publicly announced that masks would not be required inside his restaurant if you choose not to wear one.
Since their public announcement the small family business has been threatened numerous times by the actions of the Wells County Health Department.
Regardless of increased support throughout the community for the local restaurant, on Tuesday, August 18, 2020 a Bluffton police department officer escorted a Health Dept official to his residence to deliver a Cease and Desist order.
The Health Dept is pursuing to close down the family business on Thursday, August 20,20.
This petition is in support of Yergy's BBQ and businesses alike that are leaving it up to the community and the people within to make personal decisions about mask-wearing. This petition supports allowing customers and employees the right to not wear masks if they choose not to.
