Summary

America will be watching, as several states start relaxing social distancing restrictions and reopening parts of their economy today. Some argue it's still too soon. Will these changes result in a spike in coronavirus infections? Plus, how have other countries fared with less restrictive lockdowns? University of California, Irvine epidemiologist Andrew Noymer weighs in on all of this. The coronavirus and social-distancing restrictions have sparked a debate centering around remote voting in Congress. Senator Tim Scott shares his take on how Washington's business should get done in a crisis. Plus, the South Carolina Republican discusses his relationship with President Trump, what he faced being the only black Republican in the Senate and his new book, "Opportunity Knocks: How Hard Work, Community, and Business Can Improve Lives and End Poverty." Don't miss the good news with Tonya J. Powers. Plus, commentary by FOX Nation host Tom Shillue. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
