Governor Larry Hogan spoke on NBC News Friday morning and said Maryland was in the "next wave of hot spots."
He also spoke about some tension between The White House and the nation's governors over President Trump's prior remarks that he had the power—not the governors—to reopen states.
Governor Hogan attended a 3 p.m. meeting with President Trump where Mr. Trump outlined procedures for reopening states.
The President said governors will have the say in how fast to recover.
"You're going to call your own shots," President Trump said, according to a recording of the meeting obtained by CBS News. "We'll be standing right alongside of you, and we're going to get our country open and get it working."
