Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden on Saturday said no one should board public transportation without a mask before calling wearing a mask an act of patriotism.

“We need a nationwide mask guidance so that no one gets on a public transportation unit without a mask. When they turned that request down, the Department of Transportation, they made a gigantic mistake,” Biden said during a virtual town hall with the Amalgamated Transit Union.
