New York Governor Kathy Hochul will lift her statewide indoor mask mandate on Wednesday, the New York Times reported.
Hochul will make the announcement on Wednesday as other Democrat-run states make the same changes.
It is unclear if Hochul will lift the mandate for schools.
Just two weeks ago Kathy Hochul waged war with an appellate judge who overturned her mask mandate.
A New York State Supreme Court judge two weeks ago ruled Governor Kathy Hochul’s mask mandate “unconstitutional” and declared it null and void.
The judge, who is out of Nassau County, said Hochul had no authority to enact the mask mandate without the state legislature because she no longer has emergency powers.
Hochul immediately filed an appeal and a New York Appellate Judge granted an emergency stay pending appeal.
What changed in 14 days?
like it makes any difference
NOBODY here in the FLX, except the RAT insane, have worn a masks for MONTHS, unless going into gov/medial buildings...
Need to ditch the injection social credit passes, too.
What changed is that she is up for re-election and she is wildly unpopular and has no chance, Plus Andrew Cuomo is kicking the tires on running again
Joe’s “I shut down covid” State of the Union speech is March 1.
Can’t get in the way of the celebration.
Besides, Hunter found a cure for covid: crack. Free crack pipes for everybody!
That’s what happened in Oregon. ..the mask mandate was automatically expiring...but the Oregon Health Authority instituted a rule just before that which allows them to bring it back...
And her announcement will elicit loud shouts of jubilant joy from the MSM about her decisive leadership because “SCIENCE”!
except Tompkins county
She had moved the date of the mask mandate to Feb 21
The land whale Stacey Addams has to be the most at risk person anywhere. May God take pity on her.
The judge will drop the suit saying that the issue is now mute.
Hochul will never be proven to have committed an illegal act. No wonder that she is not extending it.

I question the timing.
I’m talking about the real crunch and I was being generous - the times will vary but the outcome would be the same when nothing in the cities is available.
Sorry, I used to have to go meet clients/people in those projects in the 90’s.
Nothing scary than being down one of those thin hallways, 15 stories up, and knowing that every single person in those apartments would rather kill you than look at you.
The only reason they didn’t was the B&Cs.
yeah RAT insane central...
Do you suppose the adults were all holding their breath during the picture-taking?
Mask free tomorrow. In before the judge imposes it.
What a snake this biotch is. LIES, LIES, LIES!
Giving masks and vaxxines the credit for all the reductions.
NONSENSE. Neither one had ANYTHING to do with it. Masks don’t work and the vaxxines don’t work on Omicron and cause more harm than good in everyone that gets them.
Heard the honks, all the way in NY!
Nothing sudden about it. It was supposed to expire.
schools only......
