Lesson Topic
Senate and State Responses to Re-Opening FL
Lesson Outline
Senator Diane Feinstein of CA urges Senator Mitch McConnell of KY not to bring Senate back in session at this present time. Feinstein said returning is dangerous and "sends the wrong message to the American people, most of whom are being asked or directed to stay at home." But in FL things are opening around the state. Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties are actually not opening as fast as the rest of FL since virus numbers have been highest in these three counties. We looked at the differences in the re-opening process around FL, too. We viewed a sound bite from Governor DeSantis addressing the press and re-opening the state. He said that bars, fitness centers and places that offer personal services, likes hair styling, also will open later. People can schedule non-urgent surgeries again, he said, though it depends on a hospital's ability to handle surges in cases and availability of protective equipment. Schools will continue to hold online classes, he said. Kudos to Nicole for remembering the Governor's name and party affiliation. She now knows how to look for the (D) or (R) symbols before a politician's name on the news to find out their party affiliation.
