One month after President Trump ordered the nations governors to immediately reopen churches, his administration is facing a difficult dilemma, Politico reports.
Clusters of Covid-19 cases are surfacing in counties across the U.S. where in-person religious services have resumed, triggering questions about whether his administration should reassess its campaign to treat houses of worship the same as other essential businesses, or leave them alone and risk additional transmission of the deadly coronavirus including in communities that are largely supportive of the president.
