Seven GOP Governors Shun Stay-Home Orders But Grab Disaster Relief
Josh Israel April 8, 2020


Seven governors — all Republicans — have requested and received federal major disaster declarations for their states for the COVID-19 pandemic but have still refused to issue stay-at-home orders for their constituents.

As of Tuesday, 42 states have implemented statewide emergency orders mandating social distancing in order to slow the spread of the coronavirus and requiring residents to stay home at most times.

But eight governors have resisted explicit guidance from Surgeon General Jerome Adams, who said on April 1 that the Trump administration’s guidance on social distancing should be considered “a national stay-at-home order” that all governors should implement.

Seven of those eight, however, convinced the Trump administration that the COVID-19 situation in their state was serious enough to be classified as a federal major disaster. This designation allows a state to access a significant amount of federal assistance through the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
