Governor Evers Extends Statewide Public Health Emergency and Mask Mandate

On January 19, 2021, Governor Tony Evers issued Executive Order #104 extending the statewide public health emergency for another 60 days, and Emergency Order #1 extending the statewide mask mandate until March 20, 2021. This emergency order maintains the same face mask requirements that were included in the previous mandates. Lake Effect’s summary of the requirements can be found on our website. Current Dane County, Milwaukee, and other local mask mandates remain in effect. However, the Governor’s Emergency Order #1 supersedes any less restrictive local order.
