Tim Eyman and small-business owners sue Gov. Jay Inslee over coronavirus stay-home order, calling it tyrannyRepublican gubernatorial candidate Tim Eyman joined Franklin County Commissioner Clint Didier and some small-business owners in suing Gov. Jay Inslee in federal court Friday, contending the governors stay-home order to prevent spread of the coronavirus has imposed unacceptable tyranny.
The lawsuit, which is seeking class-action status, was filed in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington.
In a news conference in front of the federal courthouse in Tacoma, Eyman and other plaintiffs railed against Inslees Stay Home, Stay Healthy order as overstepping his authority and argued that state businesses and schools should be reopened.

He will do anything to stay in the public eye when he should be embarrassed to show his ugly face in public.
Wonder who is paying him to launch this lawsuit?
