Poll: Will you wear a face mask in Michigan if you’re not legally required to? Michigan Supreme Court strikes down gov.'s emergency orders No description found
The Michigan Supreme Court decided Friday that a law from 1945 is unconstitutional , impacting months of orders made by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer under that law.
Since the end of April, Whitmer has extended the state’s emergency status and issued a number of related orders under the Emergency Powers of Governor Act of 1945 in an effort to prevent the spread of coronavirus . According to the court, those orders are no longer enforceable.
Whitmer says her existing orders will remain in effect for at least 21 days , but some are arguing that Whitmer has no legal basis to continue enforcing emergency orders following the court’s decision.
We want to know: As a Michigan resident, will you continue to wear a face mask in public spaces to prevent the spread of COVID-19 -- even if you are not required to by law?
