Oklahoma will bar state agencies from requiring masks or the COVID-19 vaccine, the state’s governor ordered Friday.

The order, which goes into effect Tuesday, mandates public buildings and office spaces “owned or leased by the State of Oklahoma” to rescind mandates for mask-wearing as a requirement “to receive government services,” and state agencies are prohibited from requiring a COVID-19 vaccination “as a condition of admittance to any public building.”
