Vice President Mike Pence led a virtual meeting yesterday between the White House Coronavirus Task Force and Governors across America.

We are continuing to work with all of our Governors as some states see an increase in cases,” Vice President Pence tweeted. “We assured the Governors today that their states will have what they need when they need it.”

In Dallas on Sunday, the Vice President delivered a simple message: “We’re all in this together. And, Governor [Abbott], you know I’m a phone call away.”

President Trump’s Coronavirus Guidelines, first unveiled in March, helped slow the spread of disease while America launched the largest mobilization of industry since World War II. Now armed with the strongest testing system of any nation on Earth, U.S. Governors are well prepared to continue managing local outbreaks of the virus as needed.

“What the American people should know,” Vice President Pence said in an interview, “is that because of the leadership that President Trump has provided [and] because of the extraordinary innovation that we have brought to this task, we are in a much better place to respond to these outbreaks than we were four months ago.”
