(Lansing, MI) - In Michigan, indoor dining is now banned.  The Michigan Restaurant Association is suing to try and keep their doors open.  The lawsuit claims the ban is unconstitutional.  Restaurant owners say they could have further reduced the risk while keeping their dining rooms open.

The ban in Michigan went into effect early this morning. Here in Indiana, indoor dining is still allowed but with capacity limits. 

Dave Thornberry, owner of T-Berry’s in downtown La Porte, said his restaurant survived when indoor dining was banned earlier this year.  Thornberry said take outs and delivery kept him afloat but his overall revenue declined by about 12-percent.  He said his restaurant might not be able to survive without a similar increase in take

outs and delivery this time.
