Right now in the United States, there is still a COVID emergency.

And one of the big stories was health and human services was supposed to give 60 days notice

to states if it was planning on ending the COVID emergency.

Now it has recently been re-opped just a couple weeks ago and it was going to be ending

supposedly in January of 2023.

But that 60 day limit came and went.

That was on November 11th and there was no sign from HHS or the Biden administration

that they were going to end this, which was required for them.

So the guess is that it's going to keep going.

But Senate has voted.

This is the headline here.

There's a really important, really, a demarcation line now in America's COVID response.

The Senate votes to end COVID emergency.

Biden says he'll veto if House passes.

The Senate passed this measure and is 62 to 36 bipartisan vote, mind you.

So this is what we're looking at here in the United States.

There's a battle to get these COVID shackles off us.

But at the same time, that's the federal level.

That's the battle happening right now.

At the same time, at the state level, we have a first coming out of Colorado.

This is Governor Jared Polis.

And this was really his press release from the website, from the governor's website.
