Yakima Mayor on MSNBC Talking About the Current Situation in the Yakima Valley
Anytime Yakima is mentioned on television or in movies, it's a pretty cool thing. But when our own city mayor is on national television to talk about how 'we feed the nation' and what it's like in Yakima, it's different case but still worth pointing out.
She discusses the major concerns and needs about our valley including the closing of one of our two hospitals and how they're working those needs the best they can. She also goes on to talk about how more are masking up in hopes to move to phase 2 sooner.
