Whitmer extends stay-home order through May 15, eases rules
Associated PressLANSING, Mich. — Gov. “Taking this aggressive action has really pushed that curve down and saved a lot of lives,” said Whitmer, whose moves have been backed by health experts and in public polling. Whitmer said landscaping and other outdoor activities are “lower risk.” While golfing is allowed, the use of carts is not. But it all depends on if people observe these best practices, if we can keep the COVID-19 trajectory headed downward and if we can keep people safe.” The governor’s emergency and disaster declarations, which she cited again in the new stay-home order, may expire next Thursday. Republican Rep. Triston Cole of Mancelona said Whitmer’s relaxed order is a “start” but “not enough.” He wants her to consider allowing construction work, for instance.
