The group that successfully won an injunction against the U.S. government’s mask mandate on airplanes is asking a federal appeals court not to allow the mandate to go back into effect.

The mask mandate is “procedurally invalid” because the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), before it imposed it, did not give notice or allow public comments as mandated by law, the Health Freedom Defense Fund wrote in the 77-page filing, lodged Aug. 1 with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit.
