“GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) – A business owner filed a lawsuit against Gov. Tony Evers’ public health orders during this pandemic.

The lawsuit was filed by Jeré Fabick, who’s president of Fabick Cat and a policy advisor at the Heartland Institute, a conservative think tank based in Illinois.

The lawsuit argues the governor doesn’t have the power to extend public health emergencies without the Legislature’s consent and asks the Wisconsin Supreme Court to rule that Evers overstepped his authority. Fabick says the state of emergency should have ended in May, after the first 60 days.”
