Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan said he has signed an executive order closing non-essential businesses in the state to help mitigate the spread of the coronavirus
"This morning, I have enacted an executive order which closes all non-essential businesses, establishments, and facilities in Maryland, effective at 5 o'clock today," Hogan said at a press conference in Annapolis. Hogan said that he was encouraging people in the state to stay at home but that he is not issuing a directive to shelter-in-place, which has been announced in a number of other states led by Democratic governors, including California, Illinois and Michigan.
"All of Hogan's moves come as the Trump administration, from the White House in neighboring Washington, DC, has been slow in their response to the pandemic. President Donald Trump has been slow to invoke his powers under the Defense Production Act to compel companies to produce much-needed medical supplies, and he has at times appeared to center his attention on the economy and stock market as opposed to other things impacted by the pandemic.
