Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms said Atlanta's mask mandate remains in effect after Gov. Brian Kemp sought a court order to silence her about public health rules.
Too many have “sacrificed ... for me to be silent,” the mayor wrote on Instagram over the weekend.
Kemp is suing the mayor and Atlanta’s city council to block the state’s largest city from enforcing its local mandate to wear a face mask in public and other regulations aimed at reducing the spread of COVID-19. Kemp’s lawsuit argues that the mayor overstepped her authority, and that it should be up to the governor to “manage the public health emergency” in the state where cases are soaring.in Atlanta and more than a dozen other localities, claiming they had no power to impose restrictions.
Bottoms is defying him. The mayor posted a page from Kemp’s lawsuit on Instagram, highlighting a portion that seeks to “restrain Mayor Bottoms from issuing press releases, or making statements to the press” about her authority to impose emergency health orders.
