Iowa, Montana and North Dakota are the most recent states to lift statewide mask orders even as the CDC continues to urge masking because of new mutations.

The state's governor enacted a measure that will effectively protects businesses for being held legally liable on matters related to the transmission of the virus, saying much of the state's older population and other vulnerable Montana residents have been vaccinated.

Mississippi has not had any face covering mandates since Sept. 30 when the governor ended the requirement but encouraged masks to continue to be worn.

In Wisconsin, state legislators passed a measure to repeal the mask mandate. However the state's Democrat governor promptly reissue another mask mandate that is being challenged state's Supreme Court by Republicans.

As many conservative-leaning states drop or lessen such restrictions amid the decline in virus numbers, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, has said, "now is the time to double down" on strategies instead of easing rules amid emerging virus mutations.

Other states with Republican governors and no state-issued mask mandates including Arizona, Florida, Tennessee and South Dakota.

Governor Evers has been playing with Stalin-esque tyranny for a long time. This guy is another Cuomo and Whitmer. The WI Supreme Court ruled last year that the face mask mandate was an abuse of power. Evers went around the ruling and mandated the masks anyway. Then the WI legislature voted to end the face mask mandate. As soon as the law was passed, Evers re-enacted the face mask mandate. Now, the WI Repubs are taking their case to the WI Supreme Court ---- with another huge delay. Businesses are suffering and the Repubs are slow walking it. Why didn't the Repubs vote on an amended bill making the mask mandate end in perpetuity and making the governor go through the legislature for permission?

I just sense there is too much fuckery going on in the ranks of repubs there. They have the numbers, now do something.
