QUESTION OF THE DAY: Should the government appeal a ruling striking down the mass transit mask mandate?

The ruling said the CDC overstepped its authority in issuing the mandate. However, mask advocates say it's too early to end the mandate, especially with a new variant pushing up case rates in the Northeast.
