Pelosi says Trump will only 'make matters worse' if he reopens the country too quickly

amid coronavirus

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi cautioned President Donald Trump against reopening the country too quickly and suggested the House of Representatives might not return to Washington, D.C. at the end of April as originally planned as the coronavirus pandemic continued to spiral.

In a Thursday interview with Politico, when asked if she was worried about Trump moving to reopen the country too early, Pelosi said, "I would hope that the scientific community would weigh in and say, ‘You can’t do this, it is only going to make matters worse if you go out too soon.’”

To reopen the country, Pelosi, said, several factors would need to be considered, such as widespread testing and safety standards in workplaces.

"We have to know. It’s data. And that’s something that I haven’t seen as the basis for any decision making. In fact, I’ve seen the opposite," she said.
