Governor Brown Requires Masks in both Indoor and Outdoor Spaces
On Aug. 13, Governor Kate Brown and Oregon Health Authority leaders enacted an indoor masking mandate in response to surging COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations. Today, Governor Brown announced a new rule would extend that mask requirement to outside areas.
Beginning Friday, Aug. 27, masks will be required in most public outdoor settings as well — regardless of vaccination status — where physical distancing is not possible. You can listen to Governor Brown talk about the new rule here.
To file a complaint about customers/staff not wearing masks in licensed facilities, go to Oregon OSHA. Their website has an online complaint form as well as links to call your local county OSHA office.
