Governor Ron DeSantis vowed on Monday to keep fighting the federal agency over the COVID-19 mandates.
The Sunshine State filed an emergency application Friday arguing the federal agency's order regarding cruise ships is"manifestly beyond its authority" and has cost Florida"tens of millions of dollars."
The state's plea to the nation's top court comes after a federal appeals court sided with the CDC in the ongoing legal battle over virus-related guidelines for cruising. "I think most courts at this point have had their limit with the CDC issuing these dictates without a firm statutory basis," DeSantis told reporters."So I'm confident that we'd win on the merits at the full 11th Circuit, and I'm confident we'd win the Supreme Court."
