1. About this report

Prepared by The COVID Project, Sept. 30, 2026. Selection: State Florida and metropolitan area Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach. Quarters: second quarter of 2020 (Apr. 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020; orders from Mar. 13, 2020), third quarter of 2020 (July 1, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020), fourth quarter of 2020 (Oct. 1, 2020 to Dec. 31, 2020), first quarter of 2021 (Jan. 1, 2021 to Mar. 31, 2021), second quarter of 2021 (Apr. 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021) and third quarter of 2021 (July 1, 2021 to Sept. 30, 2021). Options: the federal layer, agencies and boards, standing duties, group meetings and trade shows and the Service's fourteen sentences answered.

This report is a record of the governmental orders and related instruments that The COVID Project has retrieved, verified and indexed for the State, metropolitan area, industry and calendar quarters selected. Each instrument appears with its issuer, its number and title, its dates, the quarters in which it was in force, the functions of a business it reached, its operative words, its enforcement provision, a citation and an exhibit identifier. Every exhibit identifier resolves to the instrument's record at covidproject.com/library, and to the exhibit file, where held, at covidproject.com/exhibit.

The report is assembled from public governmental instruments, published organizer notices, published legal authorities and public court filings, and it reports what those documents say and when they were in force. It lists the instruments The COVID Project has verified and no others, so every count in it is a floor. It is not a filing, and it does not determine any person's eligibility for the Employee Retention Credit.

The report reproduces at covidproject.com/report?state=FL&metro=MIA&quarters=2020Q2,2020Q3,2020Q4,2021Q1,2021Q2,2021Q3&federal=1&agencies=1&duties=1&meetings=1&answers=1. Every exhibit identifier in it resolves at covidproject.com/library/ followed by the identifier, and the exhibit file, where held, at covidproject.com/exhibit/ followed by the identifier.

Disclaimer

The COVID Project is a free public reference. This report is generated from public governmental instruments, published organizer notices, published legal authorities and public court filings that The COVID Project has retrieved and indexed; it reports what those documents say and when they were in force. It is not legal, tax or accounting advice, it does not create any professional relationship, it does not determine any person's eligibility for the Employee Retention Credit or the amount of any credit, and it is not a count of every order that existed. The COVID Project sells nothing and represents no one. Errors in any record can be reported through covidproject.com/contact with the exhibit identifier, and corrections are recorded with their dates.

2. Summary of findings

For each quarter selected, this section states what was in force for this selection on the quarter's first and last days, in the words of the Library's own quarter-by-quarter record for the State, the metropolitan area, the industry's regulators and the federal layer. Exhibit identifiers in parentheses name the instruments. The table that follows counts the instruments listed in section 5 by layer and quarter.

The federal layer of this report is the Library's two federal files: FED-A, the health, safety and transport layer, and FED-B, the commerce, travel, workplace and finance layer, including the orders of the federal courts those files hold. The ecosystem clusters and the federal agency clusters are listed in the Library's federal layer at covidproject.com/federal and are not part of this report's federal layer; a quarter page counts every federal-level instrument of the quarter across those clusters as well, so its figure is the larger of the two.

3. The statute and the test

An employer is an eligible employer for a calendar quarter under the governmental-orders test if

the operation of the trade or business described in clause (i) is fully or partially suspended during the calendar quarter due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings (for commercial, social, religious, or other purposes) due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)

CARES Act § 2301(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), Pub. L. 116-136, 134 Stat. 281, 348; I.R.C. § 3134(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), 135 Stat. 4, 177

Congress enacted those words four times and never changed them. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of March 27, 2020 enacted the Suspension Clause at section 2301(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), Pub. L. 116-136, 134 Stat. 281, 347-48, for wages paid after March 12, 2020 and before January 1, 2021 (§ 2301(m), 134 Stat. 351) (Ex. LAW-001). The Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020, Pub. L. 116-260, div. EE, §§ 206-207, 134 Stat. 1182, 3059-65 (Dec. 27, 2020), extended the credit to wages paid before July 1, 2021 and raised its rate to 70 percent; neither section touched the clause (Ex. LAW-002).

The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, Pub. L. 117-2, § 9651, 135 Stat. 4, 176 (Mar. 11, 2021), added section 3134 to the Internal Revenue Code, whose heading repeats the CARES Act title and whose Suspension Clause reappears word for word at 135 Stat. 177, for wages paid after June 30, 2021 (§ 3134(n), 135 Stat. 182) (Ex. LAW-003). The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Pub. L. 117-58, § 80604, 135 Stat. 429, 1341 (Nov. 15, 2021), ended the credit for calendar quarters beginning after September 30, 2021, and left the third quarter of 2021 in place (Ex. LAW-004).

The clause has seven elements, taken in the statute's order: orders; from an appropriate governmental authority; limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings (for commercial, social, religious, or other purposes); due to COVID-19; the operation of the trade or business fully or partially suspended; during the calendar quarter; and due to those orders. The words "essential," "comparable operations," "telework," "customers," "voluntary," "more than nominal," "10 percent," "directed at," "jurisdiction over the employer," "proximate," "independent" and "sufficient" appear in none of the four enactments. The credit runs by calendar quarter; the six quarters the clause governs are the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and the first, second and third quarters of 2021.

The partial-suspension test and how this report applies it

In this report the Internal Revenue Service is the "Service," the Government as a litigant is the "United States," Notice 2021-20, 2021-11 I.R.B. 922, is the "Notice," and the statutory text above is the "Suspension Clause." Tri-State is Tri-State Memorial Hospital v. United States, No. 2:25-cv-0181-TOR, ECF No. 38 (E.D. Wash. May 28, 2026), the one federal decision construing the clause's words. Doc. 44 is the United States' opposition and cross-motion for summary judgment in Stenson Tamaddon, LLC v. IRS, No. 2:24-cv-01123-SPL (D. Ariz. Jan. 6, 2025), ECF No. 44; Doc. 49 is the summary-judgment order in that case of June 20, 2025; and the Br. for Appellees is the United States' brief in the appeal, No. 25-4217 (9th Cir. Jan. 30, 2026).

The statute controls, and the Notice does not. The United States has told two federal courts so: the Notice "is merely guidance" and "lacks the force of law" (Doc. 44 at 19); "the United States is not arguing that the IRS interpretation has the force of law or is entitled to deference" (Doc. 44 at 31 & n.8); "[w]hether Notice 2021-20 exists or not, the statute will control whether a refund is warranted" (Doc. 44 at 24). The court held that "the Notice carries no force of law and is entitled to no deference" (Doc. 49 at 27) and that the ten percent figure "is not an exclusionary cut-off point, but rather a safe harbor" (Doc. 49 at 26). In the Ninth Circuit the United States called the Notice "nonbinding guidance," its ten percent provision "a quintessential safe harbor," and wrote that "[t]here is no question of deference here" (Br. for Appellees at 26, 37-38, 58).

"Fully or partially suspended" means what the words say. On definitions both parties agreed, Tri-State held: "a 'partial suspension' is a temporary delay, interruption, or termination of a portion an employer's business. The language is plain" (Tri-State at 8-9). The court refused to read "more than nominal" as "significant": "the plain language and ordinary meaning of partial and nominal do not suggest either of those interpretations" (Tri-State at 10-11). The Notice's ten percent rules are "only administrative guidance"; "the IRS Notice provides a method for the test to be met not as a requirement to meet the test" (Tri-State at 15-16). "Due to" means "because of," which "[b]oth Plaintiff and Defendant agree" (Tri-State at 17), and "the Court recognizes that 'due to' requires 'but-for' causation" (Tri-State at 19). The argument that the virus rather than the order caused the changes fails: "[s]ick patients and employees alone did not require additional protocols" (Tri-State at 20-21).

This report applies the test in five steps, with the instruments the Library holds for your selection and no others. Step one, the order: the issuer, the instrument by number and title, its dates and its exhibit; the Service's own Q&A-10 treats "orders, proclamations, or decrees" as orders "without regard to the level of enforcement" (Notice 2021-20, Q&A-10, at 927-28). Step two, the function it reached: the part of the business the order governed, whether the customer-facing floor, the back of house, the office, the workforce, the supply chain or the customer base. Step three, the change it compelled: the operative words, quoted from the instrument, and the sanction behind them. Step four, the quarter: the days on which the instrument was in force, tested against its dates. Step five, the statute's answer: a function is a portion of the operation; a compelled change is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; but for the order no law required it; and on the definitions the United States agreed to, the operation was partially suspended during the quarter due to the order.

The statute does not ask whether the business was "essential" or stayed open: the Notice's own Q&A-17, Example 4, calls an open hospital under an elective-procedure order partially suspended (Q&A-17, at 930). It does not ask whether the business could telework: Q&A-15 finds a partial suspension wherever a workplace closure "causes the employer to suspend business operations for certain purposes, but not others" (Q&A-15, at 929). It does not ask whose customers were under orders: "a business may be suspended 'due to' a government order addressing a third party" (Br. for Appellees at 41). It does not ask whether a compelled measure was "voluntary": Q&A-14 reaches only a suspension "not due to a governmental order" (Q&A-14, at 929). And it does not ask for a percentage: "The 10 percent is not determinative ... Properly understood, it isn't an eligibility requirement" (Doc. 44 at 14). The Service's letters ask each of those questions. The statute asks one, and this report answers it, instrument by instrument.

How this report was assembled

The report is drawn from The COVID Project's Orders Library, which indexes the governmental orders that limited commerce, travel and group meetings in the United States from March 2020 through September 30, 2021. The Library is organized in layers, and the report walks them in order for your selection: the federal layer (proclamations, executive orders, agency orders and rules, and the federal courts' general orders); your State, from its first declaration to the instrument that ended its general restrictions; your metropolitan area's health officers, mayors and courts; the sector regulators of your industry (licensing boards, health departments, alcohol and gaming regulators, labor agencies and federal program rules); the clusters of authorities that are easy to overlook (ports, aviation, courts, motor-vehicle offices, tribal and territorial governments); the standing duties of your State and of the United States (communicable-disease, workplace-safety and liability-shield statutes); and the organizers' notices of the trade shows, conventions, seasons and tournaments your industry lost.

Every record carries one of two grades, and the report shows only these two. Primary source read means the compiler read the issuing authority's own text: the order as published, the register page, the codified rule, the court's docket entry. Confirmed from a secondary source means the instrument's existence, number, date and substance were established from an identifiable secondary source and the primary text was not read. Records graded unverified or not retrieved never appear. Every exhibit was retrieved from the issuing authority's site or from the Internet Archive's capture of it, kept only if its text contained a distinctive phrase of the instrument, hashed at retrieval and re-checked by a second reviewer.

Every instrument has one exhibit identifier, used everywhere on the site and in this report. A State instrument carries its two-letter State code and a serial number (Ex. TX-004 is Texas Executive Order GA-09 of March 22, 2020); a metropolitan instrument carries MET and the metro code; a federal instrument carries FED; a sector regulator's instrument carries SEC and the industry number, and an organizer's notice adds GM; an overlooked authority carries AGY and its cluster; a standing duty carries DUT and the State code, or DUT-FED (Ex. DUT-FED-001 is the general duty clause of the Occupational Safety and Health Act); a legal authority carries LAW.

The dates decide the quarters. An instrument is in force in a quarter only if its effective date fell on or before the quarter's last day and its end date, if any, fell on or after the quarter's first day. The six quarters are the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and the first, second and third quarters of 2021. Because the CARES Act applies to wages paid after March 12, 2020, and the Service's Form 941-X instructions place the credit for wages paid March 13 through March 31, 2020 on the second-quarter return, the orders of March 13 through 31, 2020, the first stay-at-home and closure orders in the country, appear in the record of the second quarter of 2020.

4. The orders, quarter by quarter

For each quarter selected, the instruments in force appear by layer: the federal layer (the Library's FED-A and FED-B files, including the federal court orders they hold), the State, the metropolitan area, the industry's regulators, and the agencies, boards and authorities whose orders resolve to the State. Within a layer the instruments that carry the industry's key limitation types come first, then the rest in date order. An instrument in force across several quarters is described in full where it first appears and listed in compact form in each later quarter. Every item carries its citation and its exhibit identifier.

CMS, in collaboration with medical societies and associations, recently created recommendations to postpone non-essential surgeries and other procedures. This document provides recommendations to limit those medical services that could be deferred, such as non-emergent, elective treatment, and preventive medical services for patients of all ages. A tiered framework is recommended to prioritize services and care to those who require emergent or urgent attention to save a life, manage severe disease, or avoid further harms from an underlying condition.... CMS urges healthcare facilities and clinicians to consider the following tiered approach to curtailing non-emergent, elective medical services and treatment.

To expand capacity to care for these patients and to conserve adequate staff and supplies, especially personal protective equipment (PPE), on March 18 the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) recommended limiting non-essential care and expanding surge capacity into ambulatory surgical centers and other areas.... Therefore, if states or regions have passed the Gating Criteria (symptoms, cases, and hospitals) announced on April 16, 2020, then they may proceed to Phase I.... Maximum use of all telehealth modalities is strongly encouraged. However, for care that cannot be accomplished virtually, these recommendations -- the first in a series of recommendations -- may guide healthcare systems and facilities as they consider resuming in-person care of non-COVID-19 patients in regions with low incidence of COVID-19 disease.

I have determined that the emergency conditions in [New York] resulting from the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic beginning on January 20, 2020, and continuing, are of sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant a major disaster declaration under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq. (the 'Stafford Act'). Therefore, I declare that such a major disaster exists in [New York].... You are authorized to provide assistance for emergency protective measures (Category B), including direct Federal assistance, under the Public Assistance program [statewide].

This emergency order (a/k/a "mask mandate" or "mask ordinance") was initially effective on June 25, 2020 and has since been extended seven times, most recently on January 19, 2021, covering a period that ends on February 19, 2021. EO-12 mandates that "facial coverings" must be worn in Palm Beach County at businesses and establishments, public places, county and municipal government facilities, and while using public transportation....

End of general restrictions, State of Florida: EO 20-244 (Phase 3; Right to Work; Business Certainty; Suspension of Fines), Sept. 25, 2020, effective immediately, extended by EO 20-297 (Nov. 25, 2020) for the duration of EO 20-52; the emergency itself (EO 20-52 as last extended by EO 21-94, Apr. 27, 2021) lapsed June 26, 2021 (2020-09-25 (State business restrictions); 2021-05-03 (EO 21-102 suspended all remaining local restrictions); 2021-06-26 (state of emergency lapsed); 2021-07-01 (SB 2006 and EO 21-101 voided every pre-July 1 local COVID emergency order)). What remained: After Sept. 25, 2020: the state of emergency and every order tied to it (EO 20-69 public-meeting suspension to Nov. 1, 2020; the DEM long-term-care visitation restrictions, DEM 20-011, to Mar. 22, 2021); local mask and capacity orders without individual fines and with restaurants at no less than 50 percent (to May 3, 2021); the Florida Supreme Court's Phase 2 court operations (AOSC20-23/20-32 as amended, to June 21, 2021); the eviction/foreclosure final-action suspension to Oct. 1, 2020 (EO 20-211, then the CDC order). After June 26, 2021: section 381.00316 (vaccine-documentation ban, eff. July 1, 2021); EO 21-175 and DOH Emergency Rules 64DER21-12 (Aug. 6, 2021) and 64DER21-15 (Sept. 22, 2021) on school masking and quarantine; AOSC21-17 as amended (July 29, 2021) for every court proceeding; section 252.38(4) limits on any new local order; the federal instruments.

Preemption of local orders, State of Florida: Florida preempted local orders in four steps. (1) EO 20-91 s. 4 (Apr. 1, 2020) superseded local orders 'only to the extent that such action or order allows essential services or essential activities prohibited by this Executive Order'; EO 20-92 (Apr. 1, 2020) rewrote s. 4 to read 'This Order shall supersede any conflicting official action or order issued by local officials in response to COVID-19' (a ceiling as well as a floor). (2) EO 20-244 s. 2-4 (Sept. 25, 2020): 'No COVID-19 emergency ordinance may prevent an individual from working or from operating a business'; restaurants 'may not be limited by a COVID-19 emergency order by any local government to less than fifty percent (50%) of their indoor capacity'; the collection of COVID-19 fines and penalties 'enforced upon individuals' suspended. Local mask orders on businesses, curfews and capacity rules at or above 50 percent survived until step 3. (3) EO 21-102 (May 3, 2021): 'all local COVID-19 restrictions and mandates on individuals and businesses are hereby suspended'; 'eliminates and supersedes any existing emergency order or ordinance issued by a county or municipality that imposes restrictions or mandates upon businesses or individuals due to the COVID-19 emergency'; no county or municipality 'may renew or enact' such an order for the rest of the emergency; superseded EO 20-244 ss. 2-3. (4) SB 2006, Ch. 2021-8, Laws of Fla., s. 12 (eff. July 1, 2021), creating s. 252.38(4): a local emergency order 'automatically expires 7 days after issuance' and may be extended 'for a total duration of not more than 42 days'; 'The Governor may, at any time, invalidate an emergency order issued by a political subdivision'; 'Upon the expiration of an emergency order, a political subdivision may not issue a substantially similar order'; and EO 21-101 (May 3, 2021, eff. July 1, 2021) invalidated every COVID-19 local emergency order enacted before July 1, 2021. Ordinances adopted by regular (non-emergency) procedure were left to the counties (EO 21-102 s. 4). School-district mask rules of August-September 2021 were reached not by ch. 252 but by EO 21-175 and the DOH rules under s. 1003.22(3) and the Parents' Bill of Rights (Ch. 2021-199).

Preemption of local orders, State of Florida: Florida preempted local orders in four steps. (1) EO 20-91 s. 4 (Apr. 1, 2020) superseded local orders 'only to the extent that such action or order allows essential services or essential activities prohibited by this Executive Order'; EO 20-92 (Apr. 1, 2020) rewrote s. 4 to read 'This Order shall supersede any conflicting official action or order issued by local officials in response to COVID-19' (a ceiling as well as a floor). (2) EO 20-244 s. 2-4 (Sept. 25, 2020): 'No COVID-19 emergency ordinance may prevent an individual from working or from operating a business'; restaurants 'may not be limited by a COVID-19 emergency order by any local government to less than fifty percent (50%) of their indoor capacity'; the collection of COVID-19 fines and penalties 'enforced upon individuals' suspended. Local mask orders on businesses, curfews and capacity rules at or above 50 percent survived until step 3. (3) EO 21-102 (May 3, 2021): 'all local COVID-19 restrictions and mandates on individuals and businesses are hereby suspended'; 'eliminates and supersedes any existing emergency order or ordinance issued by a county or municipality that imposes restrictions or mandates upon businesses or individuals due to the COVID-19 emergency'; no county or municipality 'may renew or enact' such an order for the rest of the emergency; superseded EO 20-244 ss. 2-3. (4) SB 2006, Ch. 2021-8, Laws of Fla., s. 12 (eff. July 1, 2021), creating s. 252.38(4): a local emergency order 'automatically expires 7 days after issuance' and may be extended 'for a total duration of not more than 42 days'; 'The Governor may, at any time, invalidate an emergency order issued by a political subdivision'; 'Upon the expiration of an emergency order, a political subdivision may not issue a substantially similar order'; and EO 21-101 (May 3, 2021, eff. July 1, 2021) invalidated every COVID-19 local emergency order enacted before July 1, 2021. Ordinances adopted by regular (non-emergency) procedure were left to the counties (EO 21-102 s. 4). School-district mask rules of August-September 2021 were reached not by ch. 252 but by EO 21-175 and the DOH rules under s. 1003.22(3) and the Parents' Bill of Rights (Ch. 2021-199).

What remained: After Sept. 25, 2020: the state of emergency and every order tied to it (EO 20-69 public-meeting suspension to Nov. 1, 2020; the DEM long-term-care visitation restrictions, DEM 20-011, to Mar. 22, 2021); local mask and capacity orders without individual fines and with restaurants at no less than 50 percent (to May 3, 2021); the Florida Supreme Court's Phase 2 court operations (AOSC20-23/20-32 as amended, to June 21, 2021); the eviction/foreclosure final-action suspension to Oct. 1, 2020 (EO 20-211, then the CDC order). After June 26, 2021: section 381.00316 (vaccine-documentation ban, eff. July 1, 2021); EO 21-175 and DOH Emergency Rules 64DER21-12 (Aug. 6, 2021) and 64DER21-15 (Sept. 22, 2021) on school masking and quarantine; AOSC21-17 as amended (July 29, 2021) for every court proceeding; section 252.38(4) limits on any new local order; the federal instruments.

Preemption of local orders, State of Florida: Florida preempted local orders in four steps. (1) EO 20-91 s. 4 (Apr. 1, 2020) superseded local orders 'only to the extent that such action or order allows essential services or essential activities prohibited by this Executive Order'; EO 20-92 (Apr. 1, 2020) rewrote s. 4 to read 'This Order shall supersede any conflicting official action or order issued by local officials in response to COVID-19' (a ceiling as well as a floor). (2) EO 20-244 s. 2-4 (Sept. 25, 2020): 'No COVID-19 emergency ordinance may prevent an individual from working or from operating a business'; restaurants 'may not be limited by a COVID-19 emergency order by any local government to less than fifty percent (50%) of their indoor capacity'; the collection of COVID-19 fines and penalties 'enforced upon individuals' suspended. Local mask orders on businesses, curfews and capacity rules at or above 50 percent survived until step 3. (3) EO 21-102 (May 3, 2021): 'all local COVID-19 restrictions and mandates on individuals and businesses are hereby suspended'; 'eliminates and supersedes any existing emergency order or ordinance issued by a county or municipality that imposes restrictions or mandates upon businesses or individuals due to the COVID-19 emergency'; no county or municipality 'may renew or enact' such an order for the rest of the emergency; superseded EO 20-244 ss. 2-3. (4) SB 2006, Ch. 2021-8, Laws of Fla., s. 12 (eff. July 1, 2021), creating s. 252.38(4): a local emergency order 'automatically expires 7 days after issuance' and may be extended 'for a total duration of not more than 42 days'; 'The Governor may, at any time, invalidate an emergency order issued by a political subdivision'; 'Upon the expiration of an emergency order, a political subdivision may not issue a substantially similar order'; and EO 21-101 (May 3, 2021, eff. July 1, 2021) invalidated every COVID-19 local emergency order enacted before July 1, 2021. Ordinances adopted by regular (non-emergency) procedure were left to the counties (EO 21-102 s. 4). School-district mask rules of August-September 2021 were reached not by ch. 252 but by EO 21-175 and the DOH rules under s. 1003.22(3) and the Parents' Bill of Rights (Ch. 2021-199).

End of general restrictions, Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach: Florida EO 20-244 (Sept. 25, 2020) (FL-047) ended the counties' authority to close businesses and to limit restaurants below 50 percent, and suspended COVID-19 fines and penalties on individuals; Florida EO 21-102 (May 3, 2021) (FL-060) suspended 'all local COVID-19 restrictions and mandates on individuals and businesses' and barred counties and cities from renewing or enacting any for the rest of the State emergency; EO 21-101 (May 3, 2021, effective July 1, 2021) (FL-059) and SB 2006, Ch. 2021-8, s. 12 (FL-030) invalidated every pre-July 1, 2021 local COVID-19 emergency order and capped any new one at 7 days, extendable to 42 (2020-09-25 (closures and sub-50-percent restaurant caps ended; individual fines suspended); 2021-05-03 (all remaining local business and individual mandates suspended: Miami-Dade EO 33-20 shown as 'Canceled' on the County index; Palm Beach EO 2020-012 due to expire May 18, 2021; Broward CEO and Miami Beach Apr. 28, 2021 order overtaken); 2021-07-01 (invalidation of every pre-July 1 local order)). What remained: Metro consequence of EO 20-244: from Sept. 26-29, 2020 every business in the three counties could open, but under county operating conditions the State left intact: facial coverings in every establishment and in public (Miami-Dade EO 20-20; Broward EO 20-21 s. 3 and the CEO ch. 3; Palm Beach EO 2020-012), six feet between tables and no more than six per table as the price of exceeding 50 percent (Miami-Dade EO 30-20 s. 3(e); Broward EO 20-28 Att. 2; the CEO ch. 12), on-premises food and alcohol service bans from 11 p.m. or midnight to 5 or 6 a.m., the Miami-Dade curfew (EO 27-20 to Apr. 12, 2021), ten-person gathering caps, signage, sanitation and employee-screening rules, closure of establishments with a positive employee (Miami-Dade EO 28-20/30-20 s. 5-6), the 24-hour closure and attestation regime for violators (Broward EO 20-18; Palm Beach EO 2020-017; Miami Order 20-17), and fines on businesses (Broward: $500/60 days criminal, $1,000 per day civil, $15,000 knowing violation; Palm Beach: $250/$350/$500 citations, s. 162.09 fines to $15,000; Miami-Dade: closure and compliance plans). Metro consequence of EO 21-102: on May 3, 2021 every remaining county and city business and individual mandate in the metro was suspended (Miami-Dade EO 33-20 and its amendment appear as 'Canceled' on the County's May 7, 2021 index; the City of Miami had already cancelled Orders 20-04, 20-06, 20-11, 20-16 and 20-17 on Apr. 15, 2021). After May 3, 2021 and through Sept. 30, 2021: the local states of emergency themselves (Miami-Dade renewed weekly through Sept. 23, 2021 and beyond; Palm Beach newly declared Aug. 17, 2021 and terminated Oct. 19, 2021; City of Miami's 67th extension June 22, 2021), hospital-reporting instruments (Miami-Dade EO 02-21, July 29, 2021; Broward Emergency Directive 21-A, Aug. 5, 2021; Palm Beach Emergency Directive 2021-A, Aug. 23, 2021), masks at Miami-Dade County facilities (Mayor's statement, July 30, 2021), the federal mask order on Miami-Dade Transit and at its stations (County notice, Aug. 3, 2021), the Miami-Dade County Public Schools' mandatory facial coverings and 10-day isolation protocol (Aug. 19, 2021), and the State and federal layers (FL-063, FL-032, FL-033; the CDC conveyance order and TSA directives).

Preemption of local orders, Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach: Florida preempted the metro's orders in four steps, each recorded in the exhibits. (1) EO 20-91 s. 4 (Apr. 1, 2020) and EO 20-92 (Apr. 1, 2020) made the State order 'supersede any conflicting official action or order issued by local officials' while (through EO 20-89, Mar. 30, 2020) ordering Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach and Monroe to restrict access to businesses deemed non-essential under Miami-Dade EO 07-20 and barring curfews on transit to essential establishments; Broward EO 20-06 (Apr. 10, 2020) and Palm Beach EO 2020-017 (Aug. 7, 2020) were issued 'to implement' and 'adopt by reference' the State orders. (2) EO 20-244 (Sept. 25, 2020): 'No COVID-19 emergency ordinance may prevent an individual from working or from operating a business'; restaurants 'may not be limited... to less than fifty percent (50%) of their indoor capacity'; collection of fines and penalties 'enforced upon individuals' suspended. Broward's County Administrator recited that she was 'compelled to allow all establishments in Broward County to operate' (EO 20-29) and deleted her closure section 'to the extent preempted' (EO 20-26 s. 1-2); Miami-Dade EO 30-20 and Palm Beach EO 2020-028 recited the same compulsion and kept masks, distancing, hours and enforcement. (3) EO 21-102 (May 3, 2021): 'all local COVID-19 restrictions and mandates on individuals and businesses are hereby suspended'; no county or municipality 'may renew or enact' any for the rest of the State emergency; ss. 2-3 of EO 20-244 superseded. (4) SB 2006, Ch. 2021-8, s. 12 (eff. July 1, 2021), s. 252.38(4): a local emergency order 'automatically expires 7 days after issuance,' extendable 'for a total duration of not more than 42 days'; 'The Governor may, at any time, invalidate an emergency order issued by a political subdivision'; and EO 21-101 (May 3, 2021, eff. July 1, 2021): 'any emergency order issued by a political subdivision due to the COVID-19 emergency which restricts the rights or liberties of individuals or their businesses is invalidated.' The Q3 2021 local instruments were drafted around that statute: Broward Emergency Directive 21-A s. 3 and Palm Beach Emergency Directive 2021-A s. 5 each recite that the directive 'is not, is not intended to be, and shall not be construed as an emergency order as defined by Section 252.38(4)(a)' that limits rights or liberties, and Palm Beach declared a new local emergency on Aug. 17, 2021 and extended it in seven-day increments until terminating it Oct. 19, 2021. Injunction history: the Fourth District Court of Appeal affirmed the denial of a temporary injunction against Palm Beach EO 2020-012 (Machovec v. Palm Beach County, No. 4D20-1765, Jan. 27, 2021), holding that the mask mandate does not implicate the right to refuse medical treatment and survives rational-basis review; the Miami Beach spring-break declaration cites 7020 Entertainment, LLC v. Miami-Dade County, No. 20-25138 (S.D. Fla.) and Smith v. Avino, 91 F.3d 105 (11th Cir. 1996) as upholding the Miami-Dade curfew. School masking in August-September 2021 was governed not by ch. 252 but by EO 21-175 and DOH rules 64DER21-12 and 64DER21-15 (FL-063, FL-032, FL-033), against which the Miami-Dade School Board's Aug. 19, 2021 protocol operated.

5. Standing duties in Florida

Florida's emergency orders drew their compulsory force from standing statutes that predate the pandemic and outlasted every order. Section 252.36(1)(b) gives the Governor's executive orders 'the force and effect of law'; section 252.36(5)(g) and (k) authorize control of 'the occupancy of premises' and 'the calling of public meetings and gatherings'; section 252.46(2) gives county and municipal emergency orders 'full force and effect of law' on filing with the clerk; section 252.47 commands that 'the law enforcement authorities of the state and the political subdivisions thereof shall enforce the orders and rules'; and section 252.50 makes violation of 'any rule or order' a second-degree misdemeanor. Section 381.00315 charges the Department of Health with 'the duty and the authority to declare, enforce, modify, and abolish the isolation and quarantine of persons, animals, and premises,' requires rules on 'the closure of premises' and 'the disinfection of... premises,' and punishes violation of 'any requirement adopted by the department pursuant to a declared public health emergency' as a second-degree misdemeanor; Rule 64D-3.038 defines quarantine 'actions' to include 'closure of premises, testing,... disinfection.' Florida has no OSHA-approved State plan and the 2020 Florida Statutes contain no chapter 442; the workplace duty binding every private employer in the State throughout the six quarters is 29 U.S.C. 654(a)(1) and (2). Chapter 386 makes 'the keeping, maintaining,... or permission of anything... by which... disease may be caused' a sanitary nuisance punishable as a misdemeanor, and chapter 509 requires every lodging and food-service establishment to be 'operated with strict regard to the health, comfort, and safety of the guests' on pain of fines, suspension and closure. On March 29, 2021 the Legislature enacted section 768.38, which confers civil immunity on a business only if it 'made a good faith effort to substantially comply with authoritative or controlling government-issued health standards or guidance at the time the cause of action accrued,' retroactive to causes of action that accrued in 2020. The State's reopening orders (Exs. FL-022, FL-027, FL-034) made every reopening conditional ('so long as,' 'only if,' 'if they... abide by the safety guidelines issued by the CDC and OSHA') and recited enforcement under sections 252.47 and 252.50, and EO 20-139 marked in terms which of its provisions were 'guidance and not enforceable' and which were not. Two courts of the period held the orders to be valid exercises of the police power under section 252.36 and the county mask orders to be within the police power to 'prevent the spread of infectious or contagious diseases' (Henry v. DeSantis, S.D. Fla. May 11, 2020; Machovec v. Palm Beach County, Fla. 4th DCA Jan. 27, 2021).

The phase question

Whether the measures Florida employers took beyond the four corners of the emergency orders were voluntary (Notice 2021-20, Q&A-14) or were compelled by standing law: the communicable-disease statute and rules, the Emergency Management Act's force-of-law and penalty provisions, the workplace-safety duty, the liability-shield condition, the sanitary-nuisance and lodging-and-food-service codes, and the operating conditions the State's own orders attached to lawful operation.

A.3. When may an ADA-covered employer take the body temperature of employees during the COVID-19 pandemic? Generally, measuring an employee's body temperature is a medical examination. Because the CDC and state/local health authorities have acknowledged community spread of COVID-19 and issued attendant precautions, employers may measure employees' body temperature.... an individual with the virus will pose a direct threat to the health of others. Therefore an employer may choose to administer COVID-19 testing to employees before initially permitting them to enter the workplace... An employer may require employees to wear protective gear (for example, masks and gloves) and observe infection control practices (for example, regular hand washing and social distancing protocols).

Applying this standard to the current circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic, employers may take screening steps to determine if employees entering the workplace have COVID-19 because an individual with the virus will pose a direct threat to the health of others. Therefore an employer may choose to administer COVID-19 testing to employees before initially permitting them to enter the workplace and/or periodically to determine if their presence in the workplace poses a direct threat to others.... An employer may exclude those with COVID-19, or symptoms associated with COVID-19, from the workplace because, as EEOC has stated, their presence would pose a direct threat to the health or safety of others.

6. Partial suspension, element by element, for this business

This section applies the five-step test of section 3 to a business in Florida with the instruments this report found for the quarters selected and no others: the order; the function of the business it reached; the change it compelled, in its own words; the days of the quarter on which it was in force; and the statute's answer. Where the Library holds only federal-layer and standing-duty instruments for a quarter, the section says so and applies the test to those instruments.

Second quarter of 2020 (Apr. 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020; orders from Mar. 13, 2020)

Step one, the orders. In the second quarter of 2020 the Library holds 353 instruments in force for this selection: 50 instruments from the State of Florida (Governor Ron DeSantis, Executive Order 20-112 (Apr. 29, 2020) (Ex. FL-022); Governor Ron DeSantis, Executive Order 20-68 (Mar. 17, 2020) (Ex. FL-005); Governor Ron DeSantis, Executive Order 20-91 (Apr. 1, 2020) (Ex. FL-010); and 47 more), 40 instruments from Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach (County Mayor Carlos A. Gimenez, Miami-Dade County Emergency Order 07-20 (Mar. 19, 2020) (Ex.

AGY-LOCAL-DISTRICTS-AUTHORITIES-037); Board of Governors, State University System of Florida (Chancellor Marshall Criser III), State University System Extends Remote Learning (directive of March 17, 2020) (Mar. 17, 2020) (Ex.

AGY-ST-TRADE-BOARDS-002); and 38 more), 179 federal instruments (The President and the White House Coronavirus Task Force, Guidelines for Opening Up America Again (Apr. 16, 2020) (Ex. FED-192); CMS, Quality, Safety & Oversight Group, QSO-20-14-NH, Guidance for Infection Control and Prevention of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Nursing Homes (Mar. 9, 2020; REVISED Mar. 13, 2020) (Ex. FED-097); The President and the White House Coronavirus Task Force (with CDC), The President's Coronavirus Guidelines for America: 15 Days to Slow the Spread (Mar. 16, 2020) (Ex. FED-190); and 176 more) and 43 standing duties (Congress (Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, § 5, Pub. L. 91-596, 84 Stat. 1593), 29 U.S.C. 654 (OSH Act § 5, the general duty clause) (standing) (Ex. DUT-FED-001); Congress (OSH Act § 11(c)), 29 U.S.C. 660(c) (OSH Act § 11(c), anti-retaliation) (standing) (Ex. DUT-FED-002); and 41 more). Each is an order, proclamation, rule or decree of a governmental authority with jurisdiction over the place or the trade, and each is listed in section 5 with its exhibit.

Step two, the function reached. The instruments reached these functions, in the Library's own labels: WF workforce (Ex. MET-MIA-003); CB customer base (Ex. MET-MIA-003); OF offices (Ex. MET-MIA-003); DR dining room (Ex. MET-MIA-031); OP (Ex. AGY-ST-ALCOHOL-043); SF sales floor (Ex. MET-MIA-031); CB (Ex. AGY-ST-ALCOHOL-055); TM telehealth (Ex. AGY-ST-HEALTH-BOARDS-002); CB patients (Ex. FL-009); HR credentialing (Ex. AGY-ST-HEALTH-BOARDS-001).

Step three, the change compelled. Governor Ron DeSantis, Executive Order 20-112 (Apr. 29, 2020) (Ex. FL-022) ordered: "Section 2.A. All persons in Florida shall continue to limit their personal interactions outside the home; however, as of the effective date of this order, persons in Florida may provide or obtain: 1. All services and activities currently allowed, i.e., those described in Executive Order 20-91 and…" Enforcement: s. 252.47; s. 252.50 second-degree misdemeanor (60 days; $500); DBPR; AHCA and DOH for s. 5 Governor Ron DeSantis, Executive Order 20-68 (Mar. 17, 2020) (Ex. FL-005) ordered: "Section 1.A.... any licensee authorized to sell alcoholic beverages for consumption on premises that derive more than 50% of its gross revenue from the sale of alcoholic beverages shall suspend all sale of alcoholic beverages for thirty days from the date of this order, effective at 5 p.m. today…" Enforcement: DBPR licensure authority; s. 252.50 second-degree misdemeanor County Mayor Carlos A. Gimenez, Miami-Dade County Emergency Order 07-20 (Mar. 19, 2020) (Ex. MET-MIA-003) ordered: "1. All non-essential retail and commercial establishments are ordered closed. 2. Essential retail and commercial businesses, which may remain open, are: Healthcare providers...; Grocery stores...; Food cultivation...; Newspapers, television, radio...; Gas stations and auto-supply, auto-repair, and…" Enforcement: Code of Miami-Dade County ch. 8B (recited); expires with the State of Local Emergency unless extended; s. 6 lets the Mayor amend the lists by notice to the… The operative words of every other instrument of the quarter are quoted in section 5.

Step four, the quarter. The quarter's record runs from Mar. 13, 2020 to June 30, 2020, 110 days. Executive Order 20-112 (Ex. FL-022) was in force from May 4, 2020 to June 5, 2020, 33 of the quarter's 110 days; Executive Order 20-68 (Ex. FL-005) was in force from Mar. 17, 2020 to Aug. 5, 2020, 106 of the quarter's 110 days; Miami-Dade County Emergency Order 07-20 (Ex. MET-MIA-003) was in force from Mar. 19, 2020 to May 18, 2020, 61 of the quarter's 110 days. Of the 131 instruments in the quarter's record, 10 were in force on its first day, 80 on its last day and 8 on every day of the quarter; 1 carries no parsed date and is placed in the quarter by the record itself.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of the business; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the second quarter of 2020 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19. The statute asks nothing further: not whether the business was essential or stayed open, not whether it could telework, not whose customers the orders addressed, and not for a percentage.

Third quarter of 2020 (July 1, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020)

Step one, the orders. In the third quarter of 2020 the Library holds 326 instruments in force for this selection: 43 instruments from the State of Florida (Governor Ron DeSantis, Executive Order 20-112 (Apr. 29, 2020) (Ex.

Of the 118 instruments in the quarter's record, 66 were in force on its first day, 69 on its last day and 42 on every day of the quarter.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of the business; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the third quarter of 2020 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19.

MET-MIA-068); OF administration (Ex. MET-MIA-068); SF sales floor (Ex. MET-MIA-068); predicate (Ex. FL-002); CB patients (Ex. AGY-ST-HEALTH-BOARDS-001); HR credentialing (Ex. AGY-ST-HEALTH-BOARDS-001); IC infection control (Ex. MET-MIA-008); SF premises (Ex. MET-MIA-004).

Step three, the change compelled. Governor Ron DeSantis, Executive Order 20-83 (Mar. 24, 2020) (Ex. FL-013) ordered: "Section 1.A. I hereby direct the State Surgeon General and State Health Officer to issue a public health advisory to all persons over 65 years of age urging them to stay home... Section 2.

Step four, the quarter. The quarter's record runs from Jan. 1, 2021 to Mar. 31, 2021, 90 days. Miami-Dade County Emergency Order 10-20 (Ex. MET-MIA-004) was in force from Mar. 24, 2020 to Apr. 6, 2021, 90 of the quarter's 90 days; City of Miami Order No. 20-11, Local Emergency Measures (Phase 1 City of Miami Reopening) (Ex.

Of the 66 instruments in the quarter's record, 44 were in force on its first day, 45 on its last day and 36 on every day of the quarter.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of the business; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the first quarter of 2021 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19. The statute asks nothing further: not whether the business was essential or stayed open, not whether it could telework, not whose customers the orders addressed, and not for a percentage.

Second quarter of 2021 (Apr. 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021)

Each is an order, proclamation, rule or decree of a governmental authority with jurisdiction over the place or the trade, and each is listed in section 5 with its exhibit.

I hereby direct the State Surgeon General and State Health Officer to issue a public health advisory to all persons over 65 years of age urging them to stay home... Section 2.

Step four, the quarter. The quarter's record runs from Apr. 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021, 91 days. Miami-Dade County Emergency Order 10-20 (Ex.

Of the 68 instruments in the quarter's record, 42 were in force on its first day, 23 on its last day and 19 on every day of the quarter; 1 carries no parsed date and is placed in the quarter by the record itself.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of the business; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the second quarter of 2021 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19. The statute asks nothing further: not whether the business was essential or stayed open, not whether it could telework, not whose customers the orders addressed, and not for a percentage.

8. How to use this report

Keep this report with your payroll records and the other records that support your claim. The Notice itself describes what those records are. Q&A-70 says an employer "will adequately substantiate eligibility for the employee retention credit if the employer creates and maintains records that include," among other things, "any governmental order to suspend the employer's business operations" and "any records the employer relied upon to determine whether more than a nominal portion of its operations were suspended due to a governmental order or whether a governmental order had more than a nominal effect on its business operations" (Notice 2021-20, 2021-11 I.R.B. 922, Q&A-70, at 944-45). Q&A-71 says to keep those records "for at least 4 years after the date the tax becomes due or is paid, whichever comes later" (Q&A-71, at 945). This report is the first of those two items for your selection, and it is meant to sit beside the second.

If you have received a letter from the Service saying that no government orders were in effect during the quarter you claimed, this report answers that sentence with the public record, order by order. Read the quarter you claimed. For each instrument, the report gives you the issuer, the number, the dates, the words that commanded the change, the penalty behind them and the exhibit. Those are facts about the public record, and anyone can check them against the register, the code or the docket the report cites. The Service is free to argue about how much a given order affected your business. Whether the orders existed is not a matter of opinion.

Three points of public law matter to anyone holding such a letter. First, a notice that turns down a refund claim starts a clock. Under section 6532(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code, a refund suit cannot be brought "after the expiration of 2 years from the date of mailing by certified mail or registered mail by the Secretary to the taxpayer of a notice of the disallowance of the part of the claim to which the suit or proceeding relates." Second, asking the IRS Independent Office of Appeals to review the letter does not stop that clock; the Service's own page on the letter says so ("Requesting an appeal doesn't extend this time"), and section 6532(a)(4) provides that the Service's later consideration of the claim does not extend the period. Third, the period can be extended only by a written agreement between you and the Service under section 6532(a)(2), made on Form 907, Agreement to Extend the Time to Bring Suit, and effective only if the Service signs it before the two years run out.
