President Donald Trump is set to announce new federal guidelines for reopening the U.S. on Thursday that puts the onus on governors for making decisions about their own state economies, according to the document obtained by NBC News.
Under the first phase of the three-phase plan, restaurants, movie theaters and large sporting venues would be appropriate to reopen under certain conditions, while schools, day care centers and bars would not.
The plan, released Thursday afternoon, is designed to “mitigate the risk of resurgence” of the pandemic and to “protect the most vulnerable.”
