Mark meredith is standing by at the white house with more. Mark . Reporter good evening, jon. The white house says its up to americas governors to decide if and when they can reopen, but governors say until more testing is available, that is an extremely difficult decision for them to make. Vice president mike pence, he was on Fox News Sunday today, and he tried to reassure americans that more testing is coming both on a federal and state level. Now weve cleared four million overall.

We look into the faces of nearly 3,000 innocent souls, men, women and children of every race, every creed, from every corner of the world. We can touch their names and hear their voices, and glimpse the small items that speak to the beauty of their lives. The beauty of their lives. And former mayor giuliani also paid tribute to the First Responders who we all know rushed into the towers that day. We will never understand why one person escaped and another didnt, how random it all seems and how powerless it makes us all feel, but what this museum does is allow us to see is that we absolutely can affect each others lives by what we do at a time of of crisis, how we are were strengthened by what was done that day.
