(Indianapolis, Ind.) – On June 3, Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb signed two new executive orders to help Hoosiers during the fight against the coronavirus.

The first order signed was Executive Order 20-30, this executive order extends the public health emergency for an additional 30 days to July 4.

The Governor also signed Executive Order 20-31, which allows older youth to remain in foster care beyond the age of 18 for the duration of the public health emergency. This will allow them to continue to receive education, health benefits, and workforce training.

Executive Order 20-31 also extends the time period to renew professional licenses, certificates, or permits to June 30.

Due to the current restrictions on in-person dining in restaurants, the executive order reduces the number of food sales a restaurant must open to maintain its alcoholic beverage permit.

Additionally, deadlines for the calculation of local taxes were also extended by the executive order.
