The decision temporarily permits officers to wear masks while carrying out their duties, pending further legal review.
**Why this matters**
This ruling highlights the ongoing tensions between state regulations and federal authority, particularly in public health measures. It also affects how law enforcement agencies operate during the pandemic, balancing safety protocols with legal requirements.
