Can the Federal Government Override State Government Rules on Social Distancing to Promote the Economy?
President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence meets with reporters at a COVID-19 briefing Monday, March 23, 2020 (Official White House Photo by Shealah Craighead/https://flic.kr/p/2iHiWg7/Public Domain) A wary president is eyeing the economic fallout from movement restrictions intended to flatten the COVID-19 curve, and is calling for a “return to business” sooner rather than later. But those restrictions flow primarily from rules promulgated by state governors, county commissioners, and mayors—not from the federal government.

Deathly serious? Or downright hilarious? It would be rude to suggest the Saskatchewan Party government should be able to appropriately classify a pandemic.

The National Guard operates a mobile testing center in New Rochelle, New York. (Source: Flickr/The National Guard by Sgt.

The national D.C. office of the ACLU was hosting a somber meeting of privacy and civil liberties experts from across the political spectrum. We all recognized that everything on our agenda had changed drastically. We were in a new era, where security was paramount, and privacy a policy afterthought at best.
