The governors of Texas, Florida and Georgia, where COVID-19 is raging, pushed back hard on Tuesday against local leaders who want to impose tighter restrictions to control the runaway spread of the coronavirus in their areas.

In Florida, a teachers union is suing Governor Ron DeSantis and other state officials to halt his ordered full reopening of classrooms in a few weeks. The state has reported over 10,000 daily new coronavirus cases for six out of the last seven days. Neither Florida nor Georgia have issued statewide mask mandates. Texas’ Abbott initially resisted requiring masks but earlier this month agreed to mandate them in most counties.
The clashes between local leaders and their governors comes as coronavirus deaths nationally rise for a second consecutive week and cases climb for a seventh week in a row. Some Texas counties are ordering coolers and refrigerated trucks to store bodies as their morgues fill - a grim sight that was common in New York City at the height of the epidemic there earlier this year.
