The state of Florida on April 8 sued the federal government over its prolonged shutdown of cruises, arguing that trips are being run safely in other parts of the world and that the U.S. industry is on the brink of financial ruin.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is continuing to prevent cruises from launching from U.S. ports despite not having the authority to do so, the state said in the 156-page suit filed in federal court and obtained by The Epoch Times.
