DeSantis trying to kill the whole state while keeping himself safe.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - Gov. Ron DeSantis announced Friday afternoon that Florida will move into Phase 3 of reopening, a move that will roll back many of the restrictions put in place over the last six months of the coronavirus pandemic.

All statewide restrictions on bars and restaurants will be removed and it orders a right to work and operate a business so local governments cannot close businesses. Local governments can still limit or regulate the operations in some ways relating to COVID-19.

The changes will go into effect immediately, DeSantis said.

“I think that this will be very, very important to the industry,” DeSantis said. “The order that I’m signing today will guarantee restaurants can operate and will not allow closures. They can operate at a minimum of 50% regardless of local rule.”

Statewide, there will also be a suspension of collecting fines or fees for restrictions like not wearing a mask.

“I think we need to get away from trying to penalize people for social distancing and just work with people, constructively,” DeSantis said.

Proving once again the GOP loves them some government overreach when it works to their advantage.

Also of note: The next Super Bowl is scheduled to take place in Tampa.
