New York Republican Congressman Lee Zeldin joins Fox Across America With Jimmy Failla to talk about why he believes it’s time to lift all remaining COVID-related restrictions and let people make their own health decisions.
“I was on an airplane yesterday. No masks. If you want to wear a mask, wear a mask. If you want to wear 10 masks, wear 10. But the filtration system in that airplane, the experts say, they know a lot more than I do of the airplane filtration system, and they’re explaining about how this is actually one of the safest, cleanest environments that you have. And the only thing that was pumping through that plane of happy, smiling faces was freedom. It wasn’t just the people riding, but it was also the stewardesses and the pilots. But people were able to make their own decisions. I think two years in, we have answers to a lot of our questions on COVID. Let people make their mind up whether they want to wear a mask or get a shot.”
Rep. Zeldin, who is seeking the GOP nomination for governor of New York, also shares his thoughts on Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter and what this means for the future of the social media giant. Listen to the podcast to hear what else he had to say!
