West Virginia, Texas, Kansas, and parts of South Carolina recently enacted mask mandates, joining the 23 states that have implemented orders that make it mandatory to wear face coverings in public.

New Jersey will follow suit soon with an executive order, Governor Phil Murphy said on July 8. “Face coverings are now required in outdoor public spaces when social distancing is not practicable,” Murphy said in a message on Twitter. The state had already made it mandatory to wear masks in indoor public places since April.
