Gov. Jared Polis on Friday extended for another 30 days the statewide executive order requiring Coloradans to wear face coverings.
The statewide measure, which was originally enacted on July 16, calls for everyone older than 10 to wear face coverings in all public indoor spaces and while outdoors when social distancing cannot be maintained.
The amendment announced Friday via a news release also clarifies that individuals performing life rites are exempt from the face covering mandate while a life rite is being performed. “‘Life rites’ include wedding ceremonies, graduations, funeral services, baptisms, bris ceremonies, and other religious ceremonies,” according to the release.
