"... being held at the request of the CDC ..."

This action is skirting constitutional problems imo. More specifically, the Supreme Court has historically indicated that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to quarantine citizens for health purposes.

Note that I agree with the CDC's request in principle. But let's amend the badly neglected Constitution so that the federal government can make such requests within the framework of the Constitution.

So, if a man said “To hell with you! I’m going home!” It would take some very stupid people to wrestle with him.
