Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, who perplexed even with her moderation, asked the president not to come to Arizona after he signed the $1.9T American Rescue Plan and put up a fight against wearing a mask at the White House, according to a new book. In spring 2021, the Arizona 'became the first-ever lawmaker to argue with White House aides when they asked her to wear a face mask in the company of the president, repeatedly asking why that was necessary when she had been vaccinated,' New York Times reporters Alexander Burns and Jonathan Martin write in their new book 'This Will Not Pass.' On Tuesday, Sinema joined seven other Democrats in voting to void a rule mandating masks on public transportation and in hubs like airports.
