Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee announced that while his state will extend its emergency declaration, all statewide coronavirus restrictions on businesses will be repealed.
Lee, a Republican, made the announcement during a Tuesday call with the state Legislature. He said that in addition to removing restrictions on businesses, restrictions on gatherings would also be rolled back, although the six largest cities in the Volunteer State will still be able to set their own local restrictions.
"I want the economy to move forward," Lee said during the call, according to the Tennessean. "I don't want any business to have any reason to not function as fully as they possibly can. I'm advocating for that in our big six counties, as well."
