LARRY GERINGER	7/1/21 9:33 PM	This "EQUITY" language is just a reaction to a national call for inventing another level of confusion and more bureaucratic interference with our lives.. Laws, rules , and regulations already exist to do exactly what this resolution says ...so get busy and take care of worthwhile needs of your citizens..
Elaine Biggerstaff	7/16/21 2:30 PM	I strongly object using my tax dollars to implement a Marxist, racist and insane "equity" plan. There is no way for anything to be equitable unless you favor Communism. What a complete waste of money and time and what a disappointment that Pierce County Council members are part of the destruction of this country if they pass this legislation.
