Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan signed an executive order on March 30 requiring state residents to stay at home except for essential trips, due to spread of the CCP virus, warning violators they could be punished with a jail sentence of up to a year.

“No Maryland resident should be leaving their home unless it is for an essential job or for an essential reason,” Hogan said at a press conference.
