amid coronavirusHouse Speaker Nancy Pelosi cautioned President Donald Trump against reopening the country too quickly and suggested the House of Representatives might not return to Washington, D.C. at the end of April as originally planned as the coronavirus pandemic continued to spiral.
In a Thursday interview with Politico, when asked if she was worried about Trump moving to reopen the country too early, Pelosi said, "I would hope that the scientific community would weigh in and say, You cant do this, it is only going to make matters worse if you go out too soon.
To reopen the country, Pelosi, said, several factors would need to be considered, such as widespread testing and safety standards in workplaces.
"We have to know. Its data. And thats something that I havent seen as the basis for any decision making. In fact, Ive seen the opposite," she said.
