WBBJ TV April 28, 2021 JACKSON, Tenn. — Gov. Bill Lee is pushing for all cities within Tennessee to reopen and remove local mask authority. Business owners throughout Jackson shared their thoughts. “The customers seem to be thrilled that the mandate has been lifted and things are relaxing in Tennessee. I saw our governor on TV this morning, and he was talking about how Nashville has been opening up and relaxing and so has Jackson, so I’m thrilled,” said Marilyn Jackson, owner of Marilyn Jackson Gifts. Jackson says the moment people enter her store and realize there is no mask requirement, they rip the mask off because they feel a sense of relief and freedom.
