Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser is defending herself after she was seen seemingly violating the mask mandate she put in place one day prior.

A photo was taken of the Mayor inside at a wedding without a mask on. 

The order she imposed requires anyone over the age of two to wear a mask indoors in public, unless you're eating or drinking and that's what Bowser says she was doing.
