Tennessee faces lawsuit for letting counties require masks

https://www.wjhl.com/news/regional/tennessee/tennessee-faces-lawsuit-for-letting-counties-require-masks/

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Tennessee is facing a lawsuit over Republican Gov. Bill Lee’s decision to let counties issue certain orders to curb the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly citing their ability to require people to wear masks.

The group Citizens for Limited Government and Constitutional Integrity, also known as Tennessee Stands, and two individuals filed the lawsuit Monday in Davidson County Chancery Court.

More at link. This insanity filed the day before Shelby County, the biggest hot spot in the state, mandated masks inside schools.
