Colorado Gov. Jared Polis on Sunday defended his decision to lift some restrictions imposed to fight the spread of the coronavirus and permit some businesses to reopen.

In an interview on CNN's "State of the Union," Polis, a Democrat, said the state had to move forward "with the information we have."


"We always wish ... that I had next week's information and next month's information available to me today," Polis said in an interview on CNN's "State of the Union." "That's not the world we live in. We have to make the best informed decisions, based on data and science, with the information we have."
