During a press conference on May 6, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker announced Illinois will enter the Bridge to Phase 5 of his Restore Illinois reopening plan on May 14. The Bridge Phase of the state’s Restore Illinois plan is the final phase of restrictions before entering Phase 5 (with no capacity limits). The Bridge to Phase 5 will allow for higher capacity limits at indoor and outdoor settings, as well as increased business operations.
