House GOP lawmakers refuse to wear masks on floor following reinstated mandate in Capitol

Several House Republicans on Wednesday refused to comply with a recently re-instituted mask mandate in their chamber – putting themselves at risk of having to pay fines.

The mask mandate was made Tuesday night by Dr. Brian Monahan, the attending physician of the U.S. Congress, who told members that “for meetings in an enclosed U.S. House of Representatives-controlled space, masks are REQUIRED.”

The requirement was made as the highly contagious delta variant of COVID-19 increases virus case numbers across the country, particularly among the unvaccinated.

On Wednesday, most House Republicans wore their masks on the floor except for roughly and handful including Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene, of Georgia, Lauren Boebert, of Colorado; Matt Gaetz, of Florida; Chip Roy, of Texas; Andy Biggs, of Arizona; Mary Miller, of Illinois, and Andrew Clyde, of Georgia, according to The Hill newspaper.
