By CBSMiami.com Team, CBS Miami June 18, 2021 MIAMI (CBSMiami) – A Federal district court delivered a victory for Governor Ron DeSantis against the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Judge Stephen Merryday concluded the CDC's restrictions regarding cruising are likely unconstitutional and overstepping their legal authority. "The CDC has been wrong all along, and they knew it," said Governor Ron DeSantis. "The CDC and the Biden Administration concocted a plan to sink the cruise industry, hiding behind bureaucratic delay and lawsuits. Today, we are securing this victory for Florida families, for the cruise industry, and for every state that wants to preserve its rights in the face of unprecedented federal overreach."
