US District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle said the mandate was unlawful because it exceeded the statutory authority of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and because its implementation violated administrative law.
This story is breaking and will be updated.

(89 posts)Please correct me if I'm wrong, but a lifting of a mask mandate makes them optional. The ruling leaves the mask policy to the airlines, and if they don't mandate masks, it's an individual choice. That's my understanding.

Appointed by Donald Trump. She is from a Christian Evangelical/Taliban school by the Georgia Tennessee border, Covenant College
and she has something to do with the Federalist Society (Judaical Crisis Network) too.

(23,803 posts)Why the hell do we even have a CDC is a Federal judge can say the CDC isn't allowed to impose restrictions to fight a global pandemic? What else will she strike down? Does she know better than Doctors? Will she strike down hand washing before surgery? sterilization of medical instruments?
