Mandates

The Jim Crow laws, which were in effect from the 1880s to the 1960s, were state and local mandates that enforced racial segregation in the American South. The most common types of these laws outlawed intermarriage and required businesses and public institutions to separate their black and white patrons.

The then-mayor imposed vaccine mandates on municipal and private sector workers last year.

State law mandates that all public schools post information about their curricula online.
