The government will never pony up for the damages inflicted by the mandates, but together, we can send the question of whether masks should be required on airplanes to Congress. And we will win, write Rep. Beth Van Duyne and Robert Henneke.
Another passenger recorded the harsh words of the flight attendant to the young single mother: “If can’t wear a mask, then she shouldn’t travel with you.” She tried a bottle. The flight attendant came back and demanded that the toddler’s mask go back on between sips. Eventually, the plane took off — 40 minutes later and without the mother and child.
The government’s powers are also a balancing act. In the case of mask mandates, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention clearly failed to balance its duties against the constitutional authority of Congress. That’s why we joined together with the state of Texas to sue the CDC, challenging the constitutionality of its mask mandates on airplanes and in airports.
So how long will you have to wear a mask on an airplane? The answer might be “forever” if unelected bureaucrats have their say. That slender reed is not enough. As we argue in our case, Congress never gave the CDC the power to order universal masking on airplanes, and executive agencies cannot exercise power that Congress did not give them. It really is as simple as this: The CDC mask mandate for air travel is therefore illegal and unconstitutional.
