U.S. Reps Pete Stauber, Tom Emmer and Jim Hagedorn are being criticized for boarding a Delta flight the same day that President Donald Trump—who they traveled with on Thursday—announced his positive coronavirus diagnosis.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention , along with other health experts, advised that anyone who has had exposure to the virus or has come in contact with someone who tests positive must undergo a 14-day quarantine.
Laughlin reinforced that Delta Airlines has strict cleaning, social distancing and mask-wearing policies. He added:"Millions of Americans have sacrificed so much to slow the spread of COVID-19, yet Congressmen Emmer, Stauber, and Hagedorn could not even wait a few days to board an airplane. These Congressmen's stupidity and disregard for the well-being of their fellow passengers is staggering."
