Wisconsin's GOP-led legislature sues to block Gov. Evers' stay-at-home order
Louis Casiano | Fox News
Wisconsin's Republican-led legislature is asking the state Supreme Court to temporarily block enforcement of Democratic Gov. Tony Evers' stay-at-home order, which was recently extended through May.
An emergency petition filed with the court accuses Evers' administration of going beyond the executive branch's statutory powers.
"The public outcry over the Safer at Home order continues to increase as positive COVID cases decrease or remain flat," Speaker Robin Vos and Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald said in a statement. "Wisconsinites are forced to sit by with no voice in the process. Other Midwestern states with more confirmed cases, like Ohio, have set firm dates to begin a phased reopening far earlier than the Evers administration."
The legislature is asking the court to block the order for six to allow for a new order that complies with state law. Ever extended the existing order through May 26 and canceled classes for the remainder of the school year last week. . . .

It's good to see that there are Republicans out there who are not afraid to fight against Democrats.

Sleepy Evers is one of those effete elitist leftist facsists who don't think that the law does not apply to them. Butt they beliebe that they know better than everyone else.
