I am appealing Speaker Pelosi s $500 fine because I was in full compliance with the CDC guidance and it is unlawful, Mast, R-Fla., said in a statement Monday.

Rep. Mark Green, R-Tenn., sounds off on video of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi not wearing a mask after he was fined for not wearing one on the House floor.
A maskless House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., mingled indoors at a White House event Thursday while still enforcing coronavirus mask mandates on the House floor that amount to $500 fines.
Republicans balking at Pelosi s continued House mask requirements – despite new guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) – called out the Democratic leader for a double standard. This is the definition of hypocrisy, Rep. Mark Green, R-Tenn., told Fox and Friends on Friday. Green, a veteran, West Point graduate and physician, is among the several GOP lawmakers fined $500 this week for not wearing a mask on the House floor. Subsequent violations could reach $2,500.
Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, who was one of the four GOP members of Congress fined $500 for failing to wear a mask on the House floor in protest of the congressional mandate, argued on Thursday that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., “wants to fine the science, not follow the science.”
