With the stroke of a pen....

Contrary to Coumo's bloviating and Deblasio's whining, Trump has the power to shut down interstate travel with the stroke of a pen.

"
The federal government derives its authority for isolation and quarantine from the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution.


Under section 361 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S. Code § 264), the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services is authorized to take measures to prevent the entry and spread of communicable diseases from foreign countries into the United States and between states.


The authority for carrying out these functions on a daily basis has been delegated to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Sooooooooo your title says Rump can shut down interstate travel, then your link says the CDC can do certain things, and says nothing about EITHER entity "closing" interstate travel.

Did you read YOUR OWN LINK?
>> Under 42 Code of Federal Regulations parts 70 and 71, CDC is authorized to detain, medically examine, and release persons arriving into the United States and traveling between states who are suspected of carrying these communicable diseases. <<​

LOL..

THE CDC JUST DECLARED UNNECESSARY INTERSTATE ROAD TRAVEL CLOSURE as well. I will get a link when it becomes available.
 
And in Florida they are notifying those escaping NY City that they must self quarantine for 14 days.... As they are greeted with the Army National Gard at Air Ports..

Far more New Yorkers arrive in Florida by way of automobile.

Stopping people at airports is a waste of time...

Where is this being reported?

I think this is more than a bit dubious, as there's nothing on the web about it.

Not even on the CDC's website...

15,000 National Guard troops activated in the US Yesterday. Now we know why...

"Among the National Guard’s COVID-19 response missions: working with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to increase medical capacity, delivering food in hard-hit communities and providing support and symptoms screening to testing facilities, along with providing transportation and assessment support to health-care providers."

Nearly 15K National Guard troops mobilized across US to battle coronavirus, Pentagon announces

15,000 isn't a Hell of a lot...
 
Should I travel within the US?

CDC does not generally issue advisories or restrictions for travel within the United States. However, cases of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) have been reported in many states, and some areas are experiencing community spread of the disease. Crowded travel settings, like airports, may increase chances of getting COVID-19, if there are other travelers with coronavirus infection. There are several things you should consider when deciding whether it is safe for you to travel.


Things to consider before travel:



  • Is COVID-19 spreading in the area where you’re going?
    If COVID-19 is spreading at your destination, but not where you live, you may be more likely to get infected if you travel there than if you stay home. If you have questions about your destination, you should check your destination’s local health department website for more information.
  • Will you or your travel companion(s) be in close contact with others during your trip?
    Your risk of exposure to respiratory viruses like coronavirus may increase in crowded settings, particularly closed-in settings with little air circulation. This may include settings such as conferences, public events (like concerts and sporting events), religious gatherings, public spaces (like movie theatres and shopping malls), and public transportation (like buses, metro, trains).
  • Are you or your travel companion(s) more likely to get severe illness if you get COVID-19?
    People at higher risk for severe disease are older adults and people of any age with serious chronic medical conditions (such as heart disease, lung disease, or diabetes). CDC recommends that travelers at higher risk for COVID-19 complications avoid all cruise travel and nonessential air travel.
  • Do you have a plan for taking time off from work or school, in case you are told to stay home for 14 days for self-monitoring or if you get sick with COVID-19?
    If you have close contact with someone with COVID-19 during travel, you may be asked to stay home to self-monitor and avoid contact with others for up to 14 days after travel. If you become sick with COVID-19, you may be unable to go to work or school until you’re considered noninfectious. You will be asked to avoid contact with others (including being in public places) during this period of infectiousness.
  • Do you live with someone who is older or has a serious, chronic medical condition?
    If you get sick with COVID-19 upon your return from travel, your household contacts may be at risk of infection. Household contacts who are older adults or persons of any age with severe chronic medical conditions are at higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19.
  • Is COVID-19 spreading where I live when I return from travel?
    Consider the risk of passing COVID-19 to others during travel, particularly if you will be in close contact with people who are older adults or have severe chronic health condition These people are at higher risk of getting very sick. If your symptoms are mild or you don’t have a fever, you may not realize you are infectious.

Depending on your unique circumstances, you may choose to delay or cancel your plans. If you do decide to travel, be sure to take steps to help prevent getting and spreading COVID-19 and other respiratory diseases during travel.

That isn't even close to an interstate travel closure order...nor is it new.
 
...nor is it new.

Funny how that line always comes into play.

Well, hey now, we did it before, so, what's the derned problemo? Heh heh.

I'll bet that whenever the next 'emergency' comes along they'll say the same thing about all of the things they did for the first time this time around. That's usually how they roll.

Can't believe people keep falling for that gag.

All of this nonsense is for one reason. And that's to get the electorate acclimated to it so that next time someone can come along just like they always do and say yo, man, this isn't new, so accept it.

That sure would screw us over. Trucking supplies us.
