ORLANDO, Fla. – Gov. Ron DeSantis announced Wednesday that the majority of the state would take another step in his reopening plan and move to phase two during an address at Universal Orlando. “Today as we take another step, we’re applying this to the 64 counties, and obviously going to work with the three southeast Florida counties, as we go forward,” DeSantis said. “This is going to be signed today, and it will take effect this Friday.” Phase two excludes Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties out of the state’s total of 67 counties.

DeSantis said he would work with the three southeast counties to bring them up to speed with phase two of reopening in time.
