Illinois is sticking with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention when it comes to mask requirements.
Governor J.B. Pritzker's administration continues to back the CDC's ideas on mask-wearing and vaccination status. Pritzker says that goes for schools, but as the first day of class draws near local districts are going to be able to set rules above and beyond those recommendations...
Pritzker says there currently is no need in Illinois to revert to a statewide mask mandate.
