Interviewing Govs @LarryHogan, @jaredpolis & @JayInslee on Covid-19 recovery challenges pscp.tv/w/cxkIFDFvTmps…
It's not time to declare mission accomplished and go back to the way it was before, says Maryland @GovLarryHogan regarding COVID-19 #TheFiftyGovernors
"We've still got a ways to go before we get back to normal" in Maryland, @LarryHogan says #TheFiftyGovernors
We're live with @jaredpolis talking about the challenges of dealing with Covid #TheFiftyGovernors pscp.tv/w/1zqKVXRRMnYJB
When it comes to loosening Covid restrictions, @jaredpolis says "it’s really about empowering people to make the right choices for them" #TheFiftyGovernors
"It's just nuts to start arguing about masks at this point. We know they work," @JayInslee tells us. "To abandon that just so some governors can beat their chest and say they're the closest thing to Trump that you can imagine is really sad." #TheFiftyGovernors

It’s been nearly a year since George Floyd’s death sparked a national reckoning on race. How much has changed on the policy front?

The short answer: not much. 🧵
politi.co/2NTLdtM
In the immediate aftermath of Floyd’s death on May 25, 2020, legislators in two dozen states introduced scores of police reform bills. But only a fraction of governors had signed any of those measures into law.
politi.co/2NTLdtM
This week, the House is expected to vote on the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act—again. The bill passed the chamber last summer but was never taken up by the then-Republican-controlled Senate.

After weeks in relative isolation at Mar-a-Lago without Twitter, Trump emerged at CPAC on Sunday ready to let loose.

Here’s what we learned from his first big post-presidency speech 👇

politico.com/newsletters/pl…
1️⃣ He’s not letting go of the “big lie.”

Trump went on a tear about the 2020 election being “rigged” and claimed he won — the very falsehood that led his followers to storm the Capitol on Jan. 6.
politico.com/newsletters/pl…
2️⃣ SCOTUS: From greatest accomplishment to top target.

On Sunday, he attacked the conservative court as “cowards” for refusing his bid to overturn the election results. politico.com/newsletters/pl…

HHS Secretary-designate Xavier Becerra appears to be on a smooth path to Senate confirmation. But two 2 days of generally collegial hearings in Senate panels exposed fault lines that could shape Biden's post-pandemic agenda. Our takeaways 👇 politi.co/3r0CGUk
1. The fight is shifting from who gets covered to the cost

Senators from both sides grilled Becerra on how the Biden administration will work to bring down the cost of insurance coverage, prescription drugs, and medical tests and procedures politi.co/3r0CGUk
2. ‘Medicare for All’ has replaced Obamacare as the GOP’s boogeyman

Finance ranking member Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) even demanded Becerra promise not to pursue a “federal takeover of health care.”
