Yes, but it's unlikely a new order would look like the order just struck down. Health Services Secretary Andrea Palm must develop a new set of rules through a process known as rulemaking that will be subject to the approval of a committee controlled by Republican lawmakers, three of whom are some of Palm's harshest critics. GOP Assembly Speaker Rob...
The stay-at-home order was to expire May 26, and Evers said he didn't plan to extend it beyond then. He had begun lifting some restrictions and planned to lift more in a phased approach as the state hit certain milestones, such as a declining percentage of positive COVID-19 cases. As of Wednesday, Wisconsin had hit five of the six milestones. Wedne...
