OAKLAND — Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti has ordered all city residents to wear face coverings while shopping at essential businesses, one of the nation's most aggressive mask-related actions.
Starting at midnight Friday morning, customers entering locations like grocery stores, pharmacies, hotels, taxis and ride-hailing vehicles will be required to wear a cloth mask. Businesses can refuse service to any resident who doesn't comply with the mandate.
