Terrie Rizzo, chair of the Florida Democratic Party, released the following statement in response to Governor Ron DeSantis issuing a statewide stay-at-home order:

“It is distressing that Governor Ron DeSantis waited until the coronavirus had spread to so many Floridians before finally issuing a statewide stay-at-home order. I hope this will finally slow the rise in infections and that his actions are not too late.”
