DOJ Will Challenge Repeal of Mask Mandate if CDC Gives Green Light

From the story: U.S. airlines and the Federal Aviation Administration on Monday took just hours to announce that they’d stop enforcing a federal transportation mask mandate, once a Florida federal judge said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention illegally adopted the rule in February 2021. Jenifer​ Bologna, an attorney for Jackson Lewis, said she doesn’t expect the CDC to appeal the ruling given the mask mandate was meant to expire in May and that transportation companies, including airlines, had been pushing back against it (Yahoo).
