Illinois’ stay-at-home order will now be in effect through Saturday, May 30th, Gov. J.B. Pritzker announced Thursday.

With just one week left until the current April 30 deadline, Pritzker said he plans to extend the deadline for another month. State law allows a governor to sign an executive order for up to 30 days.

“I know how badly we all want our normal lives back. But this is the part where we have to dig in and understand that the sacrifices we’ve made as a state to avoid a worst-case scenario are working — and we need to keep going a little while longer to finish the job,” Pritzker said.

The order includes modified restrictions beginning May 1, however.

Among those is a new requirement that residents cover their faces in public spaces where social distancing is difficult. The mandate begins May 1 and applies to anyone over the age of 2 who is “able to medically tolerate a face-covering or a mask.”
