CPAC crowd boos when asked to wear masks
CPAC Executive Director Dan Schneider said, "This may sound like a little bit of a downer," but that those attending needed to comply with the laws of the county they're in, and the rules of the hotel.
He then turned to CPAC Director Carly Conley who told the crowd to wear masks, saying, "I know, it's not the most fun." She was met with boos and shouts of "Freedom!" from some members of the crowd.
Prominent congressional conservatives - including Senators Ted Cruz, Tom Cotton and Josh Hawley, and Representatives Steve Scalise and Matt Gaetz - were among the Donald Trump loyalists expected to speak at CPAC, which Trump will address on Sunday.
