The issue of mask guidelines and mandates has become such a hot-button issue that one member of leadership is calling one another names over differing opinions as if this were junior high or high school and not the U.S. House of Representatives.
On Tuesday, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) issued new guidelines about masks when it comes to K-12 teachers, staff, and students wearing masks, regardless of vaccination status. Guidelines also say for certain areas that even those who are vaccinated should wear masks indoors.
As a result, the Capitol Attending Physician Brian P. Monahan announced an immediate mask mandate on the House floor and in buildings. Carson and I have covered some reactions, but perhaps none is more newsworthy than Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) calling House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) "such a moron."
