A federal judge in Florida has voided Democrat President Joe Biden’s national mask mandate, which is in place at airports and covers travel on airplanes and other forms of public transportation.
“The decision Monday by U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle in Tampa also said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention improperly failed to justify its decision and did not follow proper rule-making,” the Associated Press reported. “The CDC recently extended the mask mandate, which was set to expire on April 18, until May 3 to allow more time to study the BA.2 omicron subvariant of the coronavirus that is now responsible for the vast majority of cases in the U.S.”
Mizelle, who was appointed by former President Donald Trump, made the ruling in a case that was filed by the Health Freedom Defense Fund.
Mizelle ruled that the mandate “exceeded the CDC’s statutory authority, improperly invoked the good cause exception to notice and comment rulemaking, and failed to adequately explain its decisions.”
