The New York State Supreme Court on Monday struck down the Hochul Administration’s statewide mask mandate as unconstitutional and a violation of state law.

Judge Thomas Rademaker of Nassau County wrote in his decision Monday the Governor does not have the authority to impose the mandate and the state legislature would have to debate and approve laws requiring masks in schools and other places.

Last month, Governor Kathy Hochul enacted the mandate amid an increase in COVID-19 cases due to the omicron variant.

The fear mongers and scared liberals love to point out people wearing masks in the 1918 influenza epidemic.

But all mask ordinances, if any, were local.

"...and the state legislature would have to debate and approve laws requiring masks in schools and other places."

That won't be a problem since both houses of the New York State Legislature, are an overwhelmingly Democrat majority.

Just remember that the court system is backward in New York. The lowest level of court is the “Supreme Court.”

Not a problem, I’ve always liked it.

Hochul’s mask mandate was unenforceable anyway. 41 of 65 New York State counties openly defied her and said they would not enforce it.

Even the NYC suburbs in Long Island and Westchester would not cooperate.
