Alabama Governor Extends Mask Mandate, But Says Requirement Will End For Good in April (VIDEO)

US

Alabama Governor Kay Ivey (R) on Thursday extended her state’s mask mandate for another month but said the requirement will end for good on April 9.

Governor Ivey said she extended the mask mandate, which was set to expire Friday, to get past Easter and get as many people vaccinated as possible.

“The bottom line is we have kept the mask mandate in place for more than a generous period of time because it has helped,” Ivey said at a presser on Thursday.

“April 9 is going to be the last day we’re going to have a mask mandate,” Ivey said. “Alabamians are smart. They have good common sense. They know what works. But after the 9th, we’re not having a mask mandate.”

  1. Florida is a border State to Alabama, so we have one State to the West and one to the Southeast that have dropped the mask mandate. What about lockdowns and the businesses dropping the oppressive and unwarranted requirement to wear a mask? If the business wants my money for their goods and service, then relinquish the demand that shoppers wear masks; otherwise, we’ll do our shopping in Florida and Alabama business, including restaurants, better not cry and complain about the loss of customers.
