On Friday, April 24, 2020 Governor Mike Parson announced the extension of the State of Emergency Order in Missouri through June 15, 2020. This does not extend the current Stay at Home Order that is set to expire on May 4.
Governor Parson initially declared the state of emergency on March 13 with the signing of Executive Order 20-02. Since that time, over 450 state statutes and regulations have been waived or suspended to assist with Missouri’s COVID-19 response.
Extending the emergency declaration will allow these waivers and suspensions to remain in place as Missouri moves into the recovery process. It will also allow continued flexibility in utilizing and deploying resources around the state where they are most appropriate.
Governor Parson will introduce the reopening order next week, which will take effect on Monday, May 4.
