OAKLAND — Colorado and Nevada have joined a coalition of Western states coordinating a gradual lifting of coronavirus restrictions.
The governors of California, Washington and Oregon had already announced a regional pact aimed at restarting their economies as the pandemic’s spread has slowed. The addition of two more states means the group will encompass some 60 million Americans, or about a fifth of the nation’s population.
Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak said on Twitter that “our states will only be effective when working together against” the coronavirus, citing the need to share information. And he noted that their economies are intertwined by tourism and commerce, necessitating collective action to prevent the virus from flaring anew.
