Georgia Governor Withdraws Request To Block Atlanta Mask Mandate

The video discusses the conflict over mask mandates in Georgia, where Governor Brian Kemp sued Atlanta's Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms and City Council to stop a local mask mandate. Kemp argues that the city lacks authority to override his ban on local mandates. Despite encouraging mask-wearing, Kemp has not mandated it. The city claims local governments have the right to protect citizens and cannot be sued without consent. Kemp withdrew an emergency request to negotiate with city officials. Meanwhile, other localities in Georgia have implemented mask mandates.
