Harry Reid International Airport lifted its mask mandate for travelers Monday night after the Transportation Security Administration said that it would no longer enforce the mask requirement, a move that local tourism experts expect will result in more Las Vegas visitors.
The decision came hours after a federal judge in Florida voided the mask mandate on airlines and public transportation.
The decision by U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle in Tampa, an appointee of former President Donald Trump, said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention improperly failed to justify the mandate and did not follow proper rulemaking.
