Nonsense. Emergency declarations are to remove and suspend potential barriers of regulation & procedure inside governmental bodies and assets so as to provide greater flexibility and streamline the response to a crisis. There is no legal mechanism to "restrict" any rights - not even under martial law. Governmental bodies are subject to judicial review as to whether actions taken during that emergency declaration were constitutionally permissible, or not.
