Senator Ed Markey (D-Mass.) on Thursday shot down a Senate bill that would have banned federal officials from forcing mask mandates on schoolchildren, domestic air travelers or public transit users.

Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) had brought the “Freedom to Breathe Act” to the Senate floor for consideration in an effort to prevent a repeat of what he called “the failed experiment of mass mandatory masking.”

“Today I want to ensure that we do not subject the American people to this tyranny again for the sake of nothing,” he declared.

The Ohio senator pointed out that despite Democrat claims to the contrary, mask mandates were slowly returning in some businesses, hospitals and schools across the nation.
