While Gov. JB Pritzker does not intend to address the state's school mask mandate, he will make an announcement for other locations, a source said.
CHICAGO -- Sources briefed on the matter said Gov. JB Pritzker will announce plans Wednesday to start rolling back the statewide indoor mask mandate at some locations.
The source said the changes will impact malls, restaurants, bars and places of business, but not schools. Schools are governed by a separate mandate, and will be addressed separately. A downstate judge's ruling against the school mandate and the governor's subsequent appeal have led to protests and confusion in districts across the state.The changes will also not impact prisons or nursing homes, the source said, or healthcare facilities or public transit, which are under a federal mask mandate.The governor reinstated the indoor mask mandate in late August after COVID hospitalizations started to rise again.
