April 19 (UPI) -- The U.S. Department of Justice on Tuesday said it plans to appeal a federal judge's decision to overturn a federal mask mandate on planes and other public transit.
The Justice Department and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention expressed disagreement with U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle's decision Monday to block the ruling if the CDC concludes that it "remains necessary for public health" following a review.
