A judge struck down New York's mask mandate, ruling that officials didn't have authority to enact it without sign off from the state legislature

A state supreme court judge struck down New York state's mask mandate Monday, ruling that the governor and NY State Department of Health did not have the authority to enact such a mandate without approval from the State Legislature.

In an opinion released Monday, Nassau County Supreme Court Judge Thomas Rademaker argued that because New York was no longer under a state of emergency at the time the mask mandate was announced, the governor and health commissioner did not have the additional authority to order such a mandate, adding the mandate is now unenforceable.In March 2021, New York's state legislature passed a bill limiting the governor's ability to issue emergency orders.

All CNN NY staff rn

Its so sad mandates have to be enacted because people are too selfish and stupid to do the right thing.

County judge. Highest NY state court goes by a different name.

AG James is appealing

Look I’m triple vaxxed and wear my mask and I’m even saying now…they aren’t stopping or slowing this strain…COVID will need to finish cycling or this will drag. We’ve had it, including my 73 year old MIL, was a really bad cold for me, cold for hubby, kiddo and bad flu for her

😡😡😡 Wear them anyway. They’re going to kill stupid people’s children. 😡😡😡

If you wanna wear a mask nobody is stopping you, just let other people decide if they want to or not. These 'mandates' are not constitutional and the courts have spoken

And on a side note An Atlanta-area district attorney investigating former President Donald Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia will be allowed to seat a special grand jury this spring

Please help me! My name is Lin donglong, an employee of China telecom fuzhou branch. Company manager huang fei (communist party of China) organized the leadership of the gang of evil forces brutal persecution: surveillance location, insult,abuse, framed to take nude photos of me

masks keep us safe.

KathyHochul is andrewcuomo 2.0

Wtf New York City is 40% of the population of the entire state

The health workers are really excited about this.

I think it’s clear most masks that u see ppl wearing don’t protect much.

Some of these state officials need to understand this isn't nazi Germany you can't force people to do anything.

😱😩😩😩😩😡🤬🤢🤮

Rediculous

Love it the mask do nothing anyway and I’m tired of wearing that crap

This country is over with.

A NY Republican judge supports New Yorkers getting sick and possibly DYING from Covid. Why do Republican politicians want to kill Republican voters? Masks protect everyone from Covid…

Another judge shits on NY. Wat have we done to deserve judges that just don’t use common sense. This isn’t a punishment, it’s a way to save lives now for the future, so our kids can grow up. Give them a chance

В. ГАЙФУЛЛИН, ПУТИНУ: ТЫ, РОССИИ ЛОМАЕШЬ ХРЕБЕТ

👍👍👍

Let everyone get infected and die seems to be the current situation. As an RN I am totally disgusted with this nonsense. Wash your hands and wear a mask... It could save a life or two

One would think, if you are wearing a mask then you are protected whether they are wearing a mask or not a. And if you are wearing a mask you are not able to spread Covid to others whether they are wearing a mask or not.

Covid isn't gonna go away until everyone catches and release! So take those masks off! 🤷🏽‍♀️

Great to see. Ppl need to chill out with this mask mandate bs. You and your child can still wear one.

What the fuck ever. I’m still wearing one. Y’all can drop off if you want.

These Judges are crazy

What about when a business requires shirts and shoes for shopping, where does this stop.

Put down your pitchforks and read the article, people: 'This Court decides only the issues of whether the subject rule was properly enacted and if so whether same can be enforced...'and the judge even says the gov & health dept are well meaning. This is about executive power.

Ok Covid cases will go back up in NY! Shame on the judge for not caring about the healthcare workers!

When Governor Hochul imposed the rule on December 31 , she called it temporary .She later extended the original expiration date of January 15 until February 1.

Only a judge from Nassau County would make such a beyond dumb ruling! Go to the legislature and get is passed while they lungs of NY state collapse!? Ignorance is not taught in school. It's inherited!! What a joke! 😆🤣😂😂🤣😂

The NPCs are really upset on this one.

EVERYONE SHOULD BE WEARING A MASK! DUUUUH! MASK UP GET VACCINATED GET BOOSTERED!

mkraju Wtf

The stupidity

*Team Covid struck down …* You’re welcome.

SAINTNET1 NetsKingdomAJ

mkraju Freedom wins!!!!!

Stop to force us to wear stupid mask! And that fucking vaccine, It literally helps nothing but wastes our money

Governor Hochul declared a state of emergency almost immediately after the World Health Organization named Omicron as a variant of concern on November 26.

Just leave the people alone and let nature do it’s good. If people don’t want to hear then they must feel.

🙌

Thank gawd, when society needed common sense we got fear based politics ordering what we did

No mask huh

The requirements in New York state , home to around 20 million people , include wearing masks in schools , on public transit and other public indoor spaces .

We are so fcked now. Might never leave the house again. Actually, I only leave for Drs appointments…

I'm here to show my appreciation to TarellaCampbel who took me out from zero to hero. I'm so glad to be among your winning team ma'am and I will always show my gratitude and work with you always.

Governor Kathy Hochul , a Democrat vowed to fight back , saying in a statement , ' We strongly disagree with this ruling , and we are pursuing every option to reverse this immediately .'

Good grief...

Jab mandates next!

Wow, the New York Supreme Court. That must be the highest court in the state and I don’t want to hear otherwise.

Can someone please investigate who is paying off these corrupt judges?!

What kind of stupidity is on the bench there?
