JUST IN: A document entitled “Opening Up America” is being shared by President Trump with the nation’s governors right now that details a recommended three-phase plan to reopen states.

Obtained by @cbsnews: Here’s Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3. Document says recommendations are “Based on up-to-date data and readiness; mitigates risk of resurgence; protects the most vulnerable” and is “implementable on statewide or county-by-County basis at governors’ discretion.”
The document lays out three phases of reopening, gradually easing social distancing guidelines as the country works to get the virus under control.
There do not appear to be any dates attached to each of the phases, indicating Trump is recognizing governors will have the final say on when to ease stay-at-home orders.
Interestingly, Phase 3 of the reopening still advises vulnerable populations to practice physical distancing and urges other individuals to minimize time spent in crowded spaces. (Dumitru S.).
