Thompson said in terms of the length of Reinbold\u2019s ban, it is to be determined as it\u2019s subject to review.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Whoa! A source just sent this video of Sen. Reinbold at the Juneau airport. She was refusing to wear the mask and the police got involved! She\u2019s also filming <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AlaskaAir?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@AlaskaAir<\/a> employees and asking for their names. Hyper loose.

Lora Reinbold (R) has asked to be excused from votes starting Sept. 11 through Jan. 15 since she can\u2019t fly into Juneau.<\/p>\n<p>Reinbold claimed the action by the airline is a \u201cpolitical ban.\u201d The senator has defended herself, stating she had worn a mask, but an activist had her banned.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was reasonable with all Alaska Airlines employees,\u201d Reinbold said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>However, reports said the ban may have stirred from Reinbold\u2019s previous involvement in arguments with airline employees regarding mask policy, though the airline has insisted she failed to comply.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/woman-pleads-guilty-to-plotting-murder-of-8-family-members\/\">Woman Pleads Guilty To Plotting Murder Of 8 Family Members<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this Jan. 27, 2021 file photo, Alaska state Sen.
