Breitbart wails:
Democrat Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) today blocked Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) after the Republican tried to pass the “Freedom to Breathe” Act by unanimous consent. The act would essentially ban federal mask mandates. “We tried mask mandates once in this country. They failed to control the spread of respiratory viruses, violated basic bodily freedom, and set our fellow citizens against one another,” Vance said.
Vance tried to pass the legislation in the upper chamber by unanimous consent, but Markey blocked it, asserting that “it would hamstring public health experts who guided our nation out of the darkest days of a pandemic.” “This disease has killed 1,139,000 people already, and doctors experts are saying the COVID is coming back. It’s on the rise once again,” Markey said, fearmongering once again.
