Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak announced on Tuesday night that the unparalleled restriction against houses of worship will be lifted on Friday.

“In Phase 2 [of reopening], places of worship may reopen their doors for gatherings with a maximum of 50 people attending a service at a time and strict social distancing of at least six feet,” Sisolak said in a prepared statement. “This aligns with our new guidance on all public and private gatherings.”
