Starting tonight at 8, you will be required to wear a mask or cloth covering while out in public.
Governor Cuomo issued the executive order earlier this week. It is yet another step to try and slow the spread of the coronavirus.
Local governments will be asked to help enforce the new rule, but there won't be a penalty for people who don't wear masks.
The governor says while he understands people might not want to cover their faces, but it will provide an extra layer of protection against infection.
