I'd like to think this tweet had something to do with it, but I'm guessing not.

Florida DUers.

I sure wish Governor DeSantis could get it together. He's under so much pressure (like Ducey) I keep thinking he'll back down any hour now!

I’ve been grounded nearly 3 weeks and been waiting for this. Tucson mayor declared a stay home order a few days ago.
