Governor Whitmer Extends State of Emergency

Governor Gretchen Whitmer today signed Executive Order 2020-151 extending the emergency and disaster declaration until August 11, 2020 at 11:59 pm. 

Whitmer shared, "COVID-19 has now killed more than 6,000 people in Michigan. That's more than 6,000 of our parents, grandparents, friends, and neighbors. And the rising numbers we've seen over the past few weeks prove that this virus is still a very real threat in our state," said Governor Whitmer. "Today, I signed new emergency and disaster declarations using independent sources of statutory authority to continue saving lives and ensure that the brave men and women on the front lines of this crisis have the tools they need." 

 

The order is effective immediately, and supports all other emergency orders contingent on the state of emergency.
