LANSING, MI - Michigan residents will be required to wear face coverings upon entering a grocery store or pharmacy through May 30.
The requirement is part of an executive order signed Saturday, May 2 by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer which extends existing safety measures to protect consumers and employees from spreading the coronavirus at grocery stores and pharmacies.
Along with ordering customers to wear face masks, the mandate also requires grocery stores and pharmacies to allocate at least two hours per week of shopping time for vulnerable populations until May 30.

We must continue protecting the health and safety of both consumers and employees at our grocery stores and pharmacies, which we rely on more than ever during this unprecedented public health crisis, Whitmer said in a released statement. Michigan has begun flattening the COVID-19 curve, but we must not take our progress for granted and continue taking aggressive action to avoid further spread of this deadly disease.
The order affects all food-selling establishments, which includes grocery stores, convenience stores, restaurants that sell groceries or food available for takeout, and any other business that sells food, according to the mandate.

And what excuse will be given on May 30 for extending the asinine so-called “protection guidelines” yet again? And June 30? And July 31? And Labor Day? And Thanksgiving? And Christmas?
I cant stand these mask people.
Guidelines will continue in all Dem governed states until Jan 3 or the election of President Biden or substitute.
Maybe she should stop shipping the virus to the nursing homes?
She has nothing but contempt for the protesters, they have no effect on her. They have had an impact on the GOP legislators.
They did not give the witch her extension but she is ignoring that too. Have any Rat Governor been smacked down and ordered to relax the restrictions?
Gov. Karen Halfwit (D-MI) just dosen’t know when to let up.
I’m amazed that she’s getting away with this.
“Gov. Karen Halfwit (D-MI) just dosent know when to let up”.
Halfwit is going to hand Michigan to Trump. IMO
You consumers are all filthy sick people and must wear a mask
Trump has got to provide more leadership on this and make sure Barr goes after these people. They have way overstepped their bounds...the Constitution is not “suspended” in a state of emergency, especially a faux one, and neither is the state constitution.
She got another legal challenge yesterday and because it was not filed by the head of the agency but by the person he delegated (who usually handles this sort of thing) Whitmer’s lawyers rejected it. Amazing how good she is when it comes to her “rights.” Others, not so much.
Every time I see this witch bloviating on television she is never wearing a mask. What a leftist hypocrite.
Just damn..... Wretchin Gretchen not only doubles down but triples down.
Womans’ got mental issues.
Yep millions of people are dying every day from shopping
Fem-Dem shield.
Heil GretchenFuhrer.

The question has to be asked as to what will it take to reign in or remove these tin pot dictators who are determined to destroy the economy for political purposes?
Trapped in their homes so they can’t go out to vote and demand Vote By Mail
