An Illinois county judge has ruled that a state lawmaker is personally exempt from Gov. J.B. Pritzker's stay-at-home order aimed at stemming the spread of coronavirus
Illinois State Rep. Darren Bailey, a Republican, said last week when he filed the lawsuit in Clay County Circuit Court that he was doing so on behalf of himself and his constituents, but the decision by Judge Michael McHaney affects only the lawmaker, citing that Bailey"has a clearly ascertainable right in need of immediate protection, namely his liberty interest to be free from Pritzker's executive order of quarantine in his own home.
The new stay-at-home order calls for face coverings or masks to be required for anyone over the age of 2 when in public if a six-foot social distance can't be maintained, retail stores that are not considered essential can only take phone and online orders for delivery or outside store pick-up, and groups of no more than two people will be allowed to go fishing or boating.
