Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer continues to come under fire for her stay home order. The Executive Order prohibits Michiganders from fishing in boats, purchasing “non-essential” items in open stores, traveling to the homes of friends and relatives, etc.

To say that Michiganders are furious with Whitmer is an understatement. Thus far, a petition to remove the Michigan governor from office has garnered more than 308,000 signatures; you can view the petition and add your name here.

In light of Gov. Whitmer’s actions and Executive Order, she is facing a lawsuit from Michigan United for Liberty. The nonprofit, grassroots organization announced its suit against Whitmer earlier today via Facebook.
