Mayor Muriel Bowser said on Monday that the city of Washington will lift most COVID-19-related restrictions on May 21 and the remainder will be lifted on June 11.
Bower said that "on Friday, May 21, the city will be turning on substantially more activity."
"We anticipate, three weeks following that, on June 11, that we will be able to turn up activity in the district all the way. So, restrictions on public and commercial activity, including capacity limits, types of activities and time restrictions, will be lifted, except for bars, nightclubs and large sport and entertainment venues where we will have a capacity limit until June 11," he added.
