'Reopen Wisconsin' organizers say protest will go on without permit

Justine Coleman   |   04/22/20 10:15 AM EDT


"Reopen Wisconsin" organizers announced that Friday’s protest against the state's stay-at-home order will continue without a permit.

Organizer Madison Marie posted on Facebook Tuesday that their rally had “officially” been denied a permit to gather to protest Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers’s (D) order requiring the state’s residents to stay home during the coronavirus pandemic.

“The Permit was filed as a courtesy to not ruffle feathers. The Rally is still happening,” she posted, encouraging people to “peacefully assemble” on Friday at 1 p.m.

More than 3,000 people have responded that they plan to attend, and another 12,000 said they were interested.

A spokeswoman from Wisconsin’s Department of Administration (DOA) told Madison365 that during the coronavirus pandemic it is rejecting all permits for events inside the Capitol and considering events to be held outside on a “case-by-case basis.”  .  .  .

It won't be the first time a Democrat governor has done something like that.
