Delta CEO Wants Trump To Issue Mask Mandate

Delta CEO Ed Bastian said the government should make it a mandate.

However, he's not optimistic that a national mask requirement will happen.

Bastian told CNN the airline industry has not issued a strong collective message asking the government to take that step.

"We've had those discussions with the White House." "I feel strongly about it," Bastian added.

"But I'm not sure some of my peers and other airlines feel the same way." Bastian said he's pessimistic that a mask mandate will happen.

The White House would not comment on the matter.
