Kansas Attorney General, Derek Schmidt, has filed a Federal Lawsuit against the Biden Administration seeking to end the continued enforcement of the Mask Mandate on public transportation, noting that even states with stringent COVID 19 policies are lifting their indoor Mask Mandates.
Schmidt joined 20 other states in filing the lawsuit in the U. S. District Court. The Attorneys General argue that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Mask Mandate exceeds the agency’s authority to mandate health regulations, including requirements for individuals who show no sign of infection. The Mandate covers individuals using public transportation, including airports, buses, railways, and requires them to wear a face covering to prevent the spread of disease. Schmidt has brought legal challenges to three other Biden Mandates implementation.
