What businesses in California are considered non-essential? Must they close? Are there fines? Can they receive outside deliveries?
Hardware store are open. I go back from lunch in a few minutes.
In California, apparently performing abortions are considered an essential service. Of course, the child might actually be born and live should there be a delay. They can’t have that.
Now they’ve shown us their power. Next time they decide to use it it’ll be easier and there’ll be even less resistance from the sheep with their heads up their sheep-a$$es.
Just get some goats!
I dont know about print shops but booze is certainly essential. There might be riots if drunks cant get their fix. And the government certainly wants people drunk right now.
That probably goes double for weed. Plus with weed people who choose to overpay for the legal kind would just go back to their dealers and the government would lose tax money.
Ive noticed gardeners working in So Cal. Plumbers also and likely electricians. Dealers are selling cars.
Government, of course !!
What could be more essential?
(And how did we do without them during the shutdowns?)
[Yes, I know these folks are talking about local government; but nearly all government "workers" don't. Remember how the Lefties whined about the Washington Monument closing? Where are they now?]

I would think defense contractors would be essential.
Hey,
It’s a sanctuary state. Anything goes.
You would think; but have you asked AOC?

Taxis/transportation/delivery drivers considered essential.
I am not convinced that laws forbid church.
Your church may have shuttered but I dont agree that they HAVE to.
I have not read your specific order so could be wrong.
My church is still open for PRIVATE prayer on an individual basis. Church SERVICES or any type of public gathering together has been completely suspended. No liturgical mass, prayer service, or holy communion of any kind.
If they can pack 'em in to wait in line to get booze and weed in Illinois, you'd think they could have SOME type of ability for people to receive the Eucharist. The Catholic Church has even had Presanctified communion for many centuries (this is usually done on Good Friday), where the communion has been concentrated by a priest IN ADVANCE, and he need not be present to distribute it among the people.
Though the fact there is no Communion available is probably more the fault of Catholic bishops than the Illinois state government, IMO. So you are essentially correct that they don't "have to" ban people from praying together or receiving holy communion.
Yes we had worship here in California and we are shelter in place.
It was outside. All household units took folding chairs and sat at least six feet from each other. Smart phones were used as hymnals, no passing of books. No passing of offering plate.
Communion was preset in little cups. One household at a time when up to take it and sat back down. When we we were all so served we partook.
As far as I know no laws were broken and we worshipped God bu gathering together as commanded. I had a wonderful time.
Churches, you can do this.
My mom was in some kind of virtual mass the Cardinal did, it was done of Friday but I guess it streamed this morning.
