The Atlanta Journal-Constitution obtained photographs of the lavish affair, which took place on May 31 at the Biltmore Ballrooms. Approximately 70 guests wearing tuxedos and gowns were reportedly in attendance, including Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio).
However, no pictures appeared to show attendees wearing masks, according to the newspaper.
The Hill has reached out to the White House and Jordan’s office for comment.
At the time of the event, Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp’s (R) emergency orders, signed on May 12, banned gatherings of more than 10 people so long as they were not “transitory or incidental” or spread out across different locations.
