Pritzker again pushes criminalizing businesses for failing to follow his COVID-19 orders – Illinois Policy

The businesses would be punished if their customers or staff were not wearing a mask after repeated warnings. He acted in May to amend the Illinois Department of Public Health rules so business owners could be charged with a Class A misdemeanor for violating his closure orders.
