. >> today the mayor of tucson, regina romero, responded saying in part, quote, my focus is on the factt the life of a fellow tucsonan was needlessly lost. by city charter it's the city manager's responsibility to accept resignations or fire department directors. after listening to the feedback of my colleagues on the council, the city council, i do not believe the chief should resign. late tonight the city manager in tucson in fact rejected the chief's proposed resignation so it's official. he's staying on. but now the city has to move forward in large part under the leadership of the mayor who yesterday offered this message to her city and to carlos ingram-lopez's family. >> carlos not only lost his life but his family lost a son, a grandson, and his daughter lost a father. as mayor and as a mother i am deeply troubled and outraged by what happened. i am outraged that carlos ingram lost his life. i am outraged that his family lost their son. >> joining us now is regina romero who's the mayor of the great city of tucson, arizona. thank you so much for joining us tonight. i know it's a

mayor regina romero. mayor, thank you so much for being here.you have a major admission by the governor there also saying that he expects that the numbers are going to be worse next week and the following week. we know masks do a lot to help. i wonder now that you have the power to mandate mask-wearing in tucson and you have, how do you enforce it? are you going to fine people if they don't wear masks? >> good morning, poppy, thank you for having me with you. arizona is in a state of crisis right now. one in five tests come back positive. it's 20% positivity in tests taken in arizona. just yesterday, as you said, 3,000 covid-positive cases. here in the city of tucson we sit on pima county, tucson county is the second largest county in arizona and for a city of 560,000 and in the area in pima county, we only have ten icu beds available. it's very scary, and -- and it is unfortunate that governor doucey really lifted his stay-at-home restrictions way too early, and even though he says that he wants to take a pause, i don't know what he wants to pa

joining our discussion now is the mayor of tucson, arizona, regina romero. for joining us tonight. what is the situation on masks in your city? it's up to you to make your own decision. what have you decided? >> well, good evening, lawrence, and thank you for having me on your show. i am a big fan. i signed my emergency proclamation at 2:00 p.m. today, and the reason that i had not been able to sign to make masks mandatory in our city was because governor ducey, in his emergency -- in his executive order, preempted cities, towns, and counties in arizona from taking steps further than what his executive order directed us to do. so it took some pressure from doctors. more than 1,000 doctors signed letters asking the governor to make masks mandatory. i've been working on meeting and calling the governor for a couple of weeks now to ask him to untie our hands as mayors of the cities of arizona. and just up until yesterday did we hear from the governor that he would untie our hands and let cities, towns, and counties pass their own mandatory mask ordinances. your

let's discuss now with mayor of tucson, regina romero. thank you, mayor.so much. thank you for having me, don. >> so listen. i carry this around. i don't know if you can see it. but this is my mask. it's got, you know, lemons on it. someone made it for me. but i carry it around all the time and wear it. and, you know, if i leave home and i forget it, i have to go back home and get it. you're going to make mask wearing mandatory in public in tucson. what led you to that decision? >> the information that we are happening in the past two weeks, the rates of covid-19 cases and the rise of those cases. not just in arizona but, here, in tucson, in pima county, where tucson is. just yesterday, as you said, in one day, we saw almost 2,400 cases, statewide. and so, in the last 20 days, we have been rising in cases, a thousand per day. >> wow. >> and so, unfortunately, good afternooner governor doosey, he preempted cities, towns, and counties throughout the state, of doing anything that would go beyond what he declared, in his executive order. and mandating face mas

with me now is the mayor of tucson, arizona, regina romero. mayor, your icu beds near capacity.hat are you doing to help your city brace for what is next? >> hi, alicia. thank you so much for having me. we were preempted by governor ducy earlier on in his executive order that was issued in march, and basically, he said that cities, towns, and counties cannot do more than what the state orders in terms of measures to protect our public. just about a week ago or a week and a half ago, he untied the hands of mayors throughout arizona so that we could do masks mandatory. but to the day, he has not made mandatory mask wearing a priority in arizona. it is alarming that today we see 3600 cases reported, the highest reported since the pandemic first started. and what i would like to see the governor do is take leadership, because this is happening throughout the state of arizona. here in tucson, what i have done through executive order is that we keep the city of tucson buildings closed. we are strongly advising all employers to keep their employees teleworking. we're strongly advising
