The governor of Georgia is pushing back on any locality that tries to implement mandatory mask use, saying that no local rule could be more or less stringent than his, which is just an executive order asking people to consider wearing masks but not requiring it.
This means no city can require masks to be worn in public buildings. This comes as the the Mayor of Atlanta accused Trump of breaking her city's law by not wearing a mask, which the WH then responded to by saying he was following the CDC's guidelines.
