Florida's governor says the Sunshine State is "fighting back" against the "unlawful" year-long shutdown of the cruise industry.
Gov. Ron DeSantis on Thursday announced that Florida has filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), demanding that U.S. cruise ships be "reopened immediately."
"This is not reasonable. This is not rational," DeSantis said during a news conference at the Port of Miami. "We don't believe the federal government has the right to mothball a major industry for over a year based on very little evidence and very little data."
"We're not gonna sit back while an administrative agency decides to shut down an entire industry," said Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody.
