Uber, Lyft Drop Mask Mandates For Drivers And Passengers

Ridesharing companies Uber and Lyft ended their mask mandates for riders and drivers on Tuesday.

The move follows U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle’s ruling on Monday that the federal travel mask mandate was unlawful because it “exceeded the CDC’s statutory authority, improperly invoked the good cause exception to notice and comment rulemaking, and failed to adequately explain its decisions.”
