Operative words

This is why I instituted a mask order last week, and support Governor Edwards in his latest order today. I will enforce these common sense steps, as we have been doing in East Baton Rouge Parish by communicating directly with businesses or non-profits who directly interact with the public.

Enforcement

As stated in Ex. 073

Notes

Confirms enforcement of the July 1, 2020 order against businesses.
