The restrictions begin on Saturday, Dec. 26, and will remain in place for at least two weeks, Baker said. The state will be reducing capacity limits to 25% for “most industries,” and is reducing the number of people allowed to gather outside to 25. For indoor gatherings, including for events, that limit is 10 people.

Springfield native Jose Delgado will take over as director of the Gov. Charlie Baker’s Western Massachusetts Office in Springfield, effective Jan. 4, 2021.
Delgado has served since 2017 as director of Government Affairs at MGM Springfield and in recent months was the nearly $1-billion facility’s only on-site media contact through the pandemic.
He takes over for outgoing director Outgoing Director Patrick Carnevale, a former emergency management official from Pittsfield, who took the job in 2018. Before him, it’d been held since 2016 by former state Sen. Mike Knapik of Westfield who left to work for Baystate Health.
Gina Raimondo, the Latest Corona Hypocrite [OPINION]
Rhode Island s Democrat Governor Gina Raimondo has been one of the toughest and meanest governors when it comes to COVID-19 mandates, having made threats to punish those who fail to comply with her commands.
Raimondo strikes fear in the hearts of Ocean Staters who just want to live their lives in peace while combating the invisible enemy. She uses threats and fear to whip the masses into compliance with her orders. And just like so many of her ilk, she exempts herself from those tough rules.
Raimondo, who recently paused her re-opening plan for the holidays, delivered a stern lecture to residents of the biggest little state to stay at home. And then she went to a wine and paint event at Barnaby s Public House in downtown Providence, where she was photographed at a table drinking wine without wearing a mask.
