Montana Governor Gianforte will lift mask mandate ‘in weeks, not months’

Gianforte

Montana’s new Republican Gov. Greg Gianforte on Tuesday said he will remove the statewide mask mandate once the the most vulnerable are vaccinated and the Legislature creates liability protections for local businesses.

Gianforte also said he will change the next phase of the vaccine rollout, 1B, to focus on people ages 70 and older, as well as those ages 16-69 who have specific underlying health conditions.
