CHICAGO (CBS) — If you’re heading out of town this 4th of July weekend, you might not be able to go where you want when you return.

In a move similar to other cities and states throughout the country, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot wants anyone traveling into the city from experiencing COVID-19 surges to self-quarantine for 14 days when they return, starting at 12:01 a.m. Monday, July 6.

People traveling from the following states, including Chicago residents returning from these states, are told to quarantine upon returning to Chicago: •Alabama •Arkansas •Arizona •California •Florida •Georgia •Idaho •Louisiana •Mississippi •North Carolina •Nevada •South Carolina •Tennessee •Texas •Utah

(snip)

Earlier Thursday, Mayor Lightfoot talked about keeping Chicago on the right COVID-19 path, which is a downward one.

“We are not going to suffer the fate that we’ve seen of other states and localities across the country that did not prudently recognize that reopening is not throwing open the barn door,” Lightfoot said. “Reopening needs to be cautious. It needs to be prudent. It is turning the dimmer switch, and not flicking the light switch and letting everything go up for grabs. It’s not going to happen in Chicago.”

Red State discrimination. Not that Chicago would be a go-to travel dream.

Simply picking up a radical talking point from New York State. This “woman” is incapable of independent thought and simply responds to whatever her white liberal masters propose.

Impossible to enforce. Lighthead is an idiot. I guess she doesn’t realize that I-94, I-55 and I-90 run right through the city. Try stopping travelers.

Those with fatal airborne-lead injuries will have to self-quarantine for 14 days before registering to vote.

She is known as Groot. She is a dwarfish black lesbian with a HUGE chip on her shoulder. She is considered a laughingstock; even Chicagoans who voted for her are fed up with her. She will be a one-termer.

Yeah, because she's so concerned about the safety and well-being of the citizens of Chicago.

By the way, what's the body count of those shot to death or seriesly wounded by gunshots in Chicago this year?

Everyone in Illinois should self-quarantine BEFORE they try to leave the state.
