Many businesses are scrambling with new challenges after the CDC’s relaxed mask guidelines caught them off guard. Starting Monday, Target and Starbucks joined a growing list of retailers easing mask requirements for fully vaccinated customers. But it still depends on local or state law. Walmart, Costco, Trader Joe’s, and Publix say no masks are required for customers who are fully vaccinated. They were among the first ones to change their in-store policy after the CDC’s announcement.
Rep. Bob Gibbs (R-Ohio) is leading 34 Republican lawmakers in calling on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to lift the mask mandate in the House. He urges Pelosi to follow CDC guidelines.
