PA Stay-At-Home Order To Expire June 4, Governor Confirms
Gov. Wolf announced Wednesday that the stay-at-home order will officially expire at 11:59 p.m. Thursday.
HARRISBURG, PA — Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf announced Wednesday that the stay-at-home order will officially expire at 11:59 p.m. on June 4. The-stay at-home requirements were put in place in March due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The order only remained in effect for counties in the red phase, which include many in Eastern Pennsylvania. Those counties will move to yellow on Friday.
Gov. Wolf has also renewed the 90-day disaster declaration originally signed on March 6. The declaration, which was set to expire on June 4, allows for increased support to state agencies involved in the pandemic response.

“As phased reopening continues and all 67 counties are either in the yellow or green phase by Friday, we will no longer have a stay-at-home order in effect,” Gov. Wolf said. “I remind Pennsylvanians that yellow means caution and even in the green phase everyone needs to take precautions to keep themselves and their communities healthy.”
