Cruz calls for CDC to 'follow the science' and scrap airline mask mandate before July 4 holiday
Fox News
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, is urging the Biden administration to lift its long-standing requirement for people to wear masks on airplanes and other forms of mass transit ahead of the upcoming Fourth of July holiday weekend.
"Biden’s CDC needs to ‘follow the science’ and end its mask mandate for vaccinated Americans on airplanes and public transportation," Cruz tweeted Monday morning. This followed a similar post Sunday night in which he added that "Americans should be able to travel to celebrate Independence Day without having to follow an outdated and unnecessary mandate." The CDC's interim public health recommendations from May 28 stated that fully vaccinated people no longer have to get tested before or after traveling or quarantine themselves following their travels. Nevertheless, they say travelers are still required to don masks while in transit.
