Tavern League Wants Bars And Restaurants To Reopen May 1st

Apr 20, 2020 | 1:02 PM

The Tavern League of Wisconsin is calling on Governor Tony Evers to allow bars and restaurants to fully reopen on May 1st, more than three weeks ahead of the end of the current stay-at-home order that has forced the closure of most nonessential businesses. The lobbying group argued in a statement late Sunday that bars, restaurants and supper clubs could reopen by implementing a variety of safety measures to protect against the spread of COVID-19. The governor is facing increasing pressure from businesses and Republican lawmakers to reduce the time of the stay-at-home-order which he extended last week from April 24th to May 26th.
