About 70 people attended his daughter's wedding. Many did not wear masks, multiple outlets reported.
White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows ignored coronavirus restrictions when he hosted a large, mostly mask-less wedding for his daughter.
At the time of the wedding, Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp had issued an order banning gatherings of more than 10 people amid the deadly pandemic. That didn’t stop Meadows from going through with the wedding, with one attendee telling CNN that there was no social distancing during the event. Meadows had his Secret Service detail with him during the wedding, and Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan was also reportedly in attendance.
Mike Moon, a photographer for the event, told The New York Times Thursday that workers wore masks, but many attendees did not.
