On Tuesday Florida and Virginia joined 19 other states in suing the federal government to abolish the federal government’s mandate to wear masks on public transportation such as planes, trains, buses, and ferries. The states suing contend that such orders exceed the government’s authority.
From pilotonline.com:
�It is well past time to get rid of this unnecessary mandate and get back to normal life,� said Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican who has long challenged federal mask mandates including those involving cruise lines, private businesses and other entities.
Other states in the lawsuit are: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Utah and West Virginia.
