Gov. Jared Polis announced he is extending Colorado\u2019s statewide stay-at-home order until at least April 26 in an unprecedented televised speech to the entire state on Monday night. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe reason for the April 26 date is simple: because the data and the science tells us that staying at home is our best chance, our only realistic chance, to avoid a catastrophic loss of life \u2014 the deaths of thousands of our friends, our neighbors, our family members,\u201d Polis said.<\/p>\n

Polis, speaking to Coloradans from the governor\u2019s mansion, said he knows that many in the state are frustrated and angry.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe all want a timeline,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen will this nightmare be over.\u201d<\/p>\n
