Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) announced Friday that her state will extend its stay-at-home order to May 15 as part of an effort to combat the Chinese coronavirus pandemic.
In a newly-released order, Whitmer said residents must now wear face coverings in enclosed public spaces such as grocery stores. Additionally, the governor loosened restrictions on outdoor activities like lawn care, boating, and golfing as long as social distancing guidelines are abided by.
The announcement comes after the Michigan Legislature scheduled a special Friday session to launch an oversight committee to review Whitmer’s response to the pandemic.
Whitmer has criticized the proposed legislation and vowed to veto the bills if approved by state lawmakers.
“Of course, I will veto bills that they send over to limit the executive power. I’ve been very clear about that from day one,” the governor stated Thursday. “Those blatant power grabs are bad in good times and dangerous in times of crisis.”
“We have really bent over backwards to make sure that we’re sharing information with them. And I think it’s worked pretty well. It’s not perfect and we don’t agree on everything to be sure,” she added. “But we have gone out of our way to try to keep them included so that they knew what and why the actions that I was taking were necessary.”
Whitmer’s stay-at-home order — which has closed businesses and schools, and even banned visits between neighbors — has drawn ire from residents, sparking protests outside Michigan’s Capitol building in Lansing last week.
Whitmer spoke out against the lockdown protesters, warning that they could prolong the state’s shutdown.
“The worst irony that could come about from these demonstrations is that they force us to stay in this posture longer than — longer than we’re already planning to,” she told MSNBC. “It’s the last thing any of us wants. I can tell you with all confidence that every governor in this country is eager to figure out when we can reopen or re-engage our economies. And yet some of us are going to stay focused on the science so we make sure we do it in the safest manner.”
