Attorney General Barr: Americans Are Home Hiding Under Their Beds

As the Washington Post report on this added, the Republican lawyer told Fox News's Laura Ingraham that the government has the power to restrict interactions during a pandemic, but he wants federal officials to be "very careful to make sure that the draconian measures that are being adopted are fully justified."

Barr added, "When this period of time, at the end of April, expires, I think we have to allow people to adapt more than we have, and not just tell people to go home and hide under their bed." Pointing to the upcoming expiration of the White House's social distancing guidance, he went to say, "I think we have to consider alternative ways of protecting people."
