Senator Dan Laughlin issued the following statement regarding Erie County’s continued status as a “yellow” county under the Administration’s COVID-19 reopening plan.
“I was totally surprised to learn from the Governor’s Press Conference that Erie County will not be moving to the ‘green’ phase of reopening. I plan to talk with Health Secretary Rachel Levine over the weekend to ask exactly what metrics are being used to make these decisions. I want specifics from the Governor’s Administration on why Erie County remains ‘yellow’.”
