Trump ignores state law by refusing to wear mask during Michigan trip



By Dan Desai Martin -May 21, 2020 5:07 PM
Michigan's attorney general wrote a letter to Donald Trump informing him about state policy, which Trump ignored.

On Thursday, Donald Trump once again refused to wear a face mask in public, this time while touring a Ford plant in Michigan that was repurposed to build ventilators.

Before the trip, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel warned Trump that wearing a face mask at the plant was required by state law.

An executive order signed by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer "requires that any individual able to medically tolerate a facial covering wear one when in any enclosed public space," Nessel wrote in a letter to Trump on Wednesday. Wearing a mask is "currently the law of this State," Nessl added.

Nessel said that her office would not prevent Trump from visiting the plant but asked that he "respect the great efforts of the men and women at Ford — and across the state — by wearing a facial covering."
