The Senators, led by Texas Ted Cruz, introduced a resolution Friday which called on the agency to lift its mask mandate on vaccinated Americans who travel on planes, trains and other forms of mass transit, The Hill reported.

Its long past time for President Biden and the CDC to follow the science and end this mask mandate for fully vaccinated individuals, Cruz said in a statement announcing the resolution. Americans should be able to travel to celebrate Independence Day with their friends and loved ones without having to follow an outdated and unnecessary mandate.

Masks are required on subway stations in New York City.

It makes no sense that someone can go to a restaurant without wearing a mask, but they cannot fly on an airplane without one even though it has a far better ventilation system, Collins added saying that flight attendants told her they were afraid that continuing to enforce the mask mandate could lead to violence on flights.
Sen. Ted Cruz argues mask mandates are outdated and unnecessary.

On his first day in office, President Biden signed an executive order mandating mask wearing on all public transportation. A planned expiration date of May 11 was pushed back until Sept. 13.

Republicans can't grasp how stupid they look when they say "follow the science"

US repubs are the real anti-life folk.

She's right, just not for the reasons she thinks

Reminds me of the supervisor who told me that wearing a mask even before vaccinated keeps me safe enough to work within 6 feet of coworkers and that he can 'pull up the science' to prove it. So naturally, he never showed me this proof.
