Trump Orders Immediate Reopening of Places of Worship
President Donald Trump ordered Friday the immediate reopening of churches that have been closed for weeks amid the coronavirus pandemic.
"If they don't do it, I will override the governors," Trump said in brief remarks at the White House on Friday after days of signaling that he planned to call for the reopening. "In America we need more prayer, not less."
Trump didn't take answers from reporters and it's unclear what authority he would exert to overstep governors.
