GOP governors slam COVID limits while setting policy agendas
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — As the omicron variant rages and fills up hospital beds around the country, Republican governors are highlighting their opposition to restrictions that have marked the COVID-19 pandemic even as they seek to move past it and set their agendas for the year.
The state of the state addresses governors are delivering to kick off their states' legislative sessions are occurring as COVID-19 hospitalizations surge to their highest levels since the pandemic began in 2020 and soaring infections are disrupting seemingly all aspects of life, from schools to air travel.
Republican governors are using the speeches to rail against the Biden administration's response, and to tout their opposition to mandates and lockdowns they argue didn't work to stem the virus.
“These unprecedented policies have been as ineffective as they have been destructive," Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is eyeing a possible 2024 run for president, said as he took a dig at Dr. Anthony Fauci, the government's top infectious disease expert. “They are grounded more in blind adherence to Faucian declarations than they are in the constitutional traditions.”
