Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey (R) on Friday sued the Biden administration after it threatened to claw back its COVID-19 funding unless the state stops sending it to schools without mask mandates.

Last week, the Treasury Department warned the state in a letter that it would move to recoup COVID-19 relief that had been issued to the state if Arizona did not properly direct the funding.

The Biden administration had said that programs or services that include conditions counter to curbing COVID-19 spread could not use federal funding.
