Michigan Gov. Whitmer wins court fight over coronavirus stay-home order
The constitutional rights of Michigan residents were not infringed by Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s stay-at-home order in response to the coronavirus outbreak, a court ruled Wednesday.
State Attorney General Dana Nessel confirmed the outcome of the case in a statement, FOX 2 of Detroit reported.
“I am pleased with the court’s decision,” Nessel said. “This pandemic has already taken more than 3,600 lives in Michigan and many more around the world. The primary goal of the Stay Home, Stay Safe order has always been to protect human life.”
Whitmer’s measures in response to the outbreak had ignited several rounds of public protests, including “Operation Gridlock,” a vehicular protest outside the Statehouse in Lansing on April 15 and “Operation Queen’s Castle,” a demonstration outside Whitmer’s home on April 23.
