Arizona Rep. Raúl Grijalva said federal parks continue to attract 'hundreds' of people, running afoul of official guidance from the CDC and President Trump's coronavirus task force to limit gatherings to fewer than 10 people.
Grijalva said federal parks continue to attract"hundreds" of people, running afoul of official guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and President Donald Trump's coronavirus task force to limit gatherings to fewer than 10 people.
“It's not something we can mandate. But my preference is always just closing," Grijalva told The Arizona Republic, part of the USA TODAY NETWORK. He added:"It's a public issue as well. The concession is closed. There's no amenities at the park and no guided tours. Nothing's going on. At some point, you know, in deference to the health of the people that work there and the public itself ... it just becomes something where you're asking the staff to do too much.
"It’s time for a more serious federal response," he said."Grand Canyon National Park is a federal facility and federal guidelines need to be enforced, whether it makes some government officials uncomfortable or not."
