Susie Lee (D., Nev.) keeps violating her state&#8217;s indoor mask mandate. Photographic evidence obtained by the <em>Washington Free Beacon<\/em> shows the congresswoman partying without a mask for the second time in as many months, putting countless lives at risk with her irresponsible behavior.<\/p>\n<p>Lee was spotted dancing at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.keepmemoryalive.org\/events\/2021\/october\/power-of-love-2021\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Power of Love Gala<\/a> in Las Vegas on Oct. 16. She wasn&#8217;t wearing a mask, even though Gov. Steve Sisolak (D., Nev.) imposed a state mandate that requires the use of masks in &#8220;indoor public settings,&#8221; regardless of vaccination status. Sisolak&#8217;s office did not return a request for comment on the reckless violation.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1531392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/lee-1.png\" alt width=\"736\" height=\"802\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/lee-1.png 736w, https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/lee-1-275x300.png 275w, https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/lee-1-451x491.png 451w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The ritzy gala, sponsored by Mo\u00ebt Hennessy, was thrown in honor of K.T. Lim, a Chinese-Malaysian billionaire. Lim&#8217;s company developed Resorts World Las Vegas, which hosted the celebrity-packed affair, where guests dined on &#8220;gourmet cuisine from celebrity chefs Wolfgang Puck and Bobby Flay,&#8221; and could bid on &#8220;luxury auction items&#8221; such as dinner with Jon Bon Jovi, a chess match with opera singer Andrea Bocelli, and a Lamborghini. Other VIP attendees included Demi Lovato, Jordin Sparks, and A.J. McLean of the Backstreet Boys.<\/p>\n<p>The event organizers insisted they would &#8220;be following all state MASK MANDATES,&#8221; which allow individuals to remove their masks indoors while actively eating or drinking, but not dancing. Lee&#8217;s refusal to respect science by wearing a mask indoors is odd, considering she is wearing one in every photo she has posted on her official Twitter account, even in situations where it&#8217;s not required. On Monday, for example, Lee wore a mask outside while hosting a visit from Vice President Kamala Harris. Nevada does not mandate the wearing of masks outdoors.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1531398\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/lee-harris.png\" alt width=\"736\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/lee-harris.png 736w, https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/lee-harris-300x204.png 300w, https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/lee-harris-723x491.png 723w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not the first time Lee has been caught behaving recklessly at a swanky gala honoring a billionaire.

The ex-wife of casino magnate Steve Wynn has donated more than $13,000 to Lee since 2015. Lee was photographed posing maskless with Sen. Jacky Rosen (D., Nev.) at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, an &#8220;urban chic&#8221; venue that &#8220;requires all guests and employees, both fully vaccinated or not, to wear masks while indoors on property.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1518333\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/costume-main-1.jpg\" alt width=\"736\" height=\"550\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/costume-main.jpg 736w, https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/costume-main-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/costume-main-112x85.jpg 112w, https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/costume-main-657x491.jpg 657w, https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/costume-main-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Lee did not return a request for comment about her irresponsible partying.
