Anyone entering the Senate next session must wear a face mask and have their temperature checked at the door, and masks must stay on whenever more than one person is in a room. Senate security will enforce the rules for everyone in the building.

Capitol denizens who have long been anxious about how the session will proceed greeted the new rules with cautious optimism, though they won’t know whether or how the rules will be enforced until the new legislative session begins in January, Cap Times reported.
