SectionsExtrasWatch NowSupporters of the movement said nothing should stop their right to peacefully assembleMADISON, Wis. — An organizer of the scheduled to be held this Friday posted online that the permit to rally has been denied, but that the event is still happening anyway.Organizer Madison Marie posted on the event Facebook page, “We have officially been denied the rally permit. This permit was filed as a courtesy to not ruffle feathers. The rally is still happening. Peacefully assemble on Friday, April 24 at 1 p.m.”Marie had previously posted about the need to open the Capitol building to provide restrooms for protesters. However, she posted that the bathroom issue had been resolved.The Department of Administration spokesperson Molly Vidal told News 3 Now that on April 20, the Capitol Police denied a permit from an individual requesting an event on the Capitol grounds that estimated a crowd of 1,000 people.“The request for the permit was denied due to the Wisconsin Department of Health Services Safer at Home order, which aims to limit the spread of COVID-19.&nbsp;It is also important to know that one of the declarations within the Capitol Police Mission Statement is to protect everyone’s civil liberties, which includes the freedom of speech and freedom to assemble. It is also their mission to protect the health and welfare of the people of the State of Wisconsin. But, as Chief Erwin always says, ‘A good day for a Capitol Police Officer is to not make an arrest, not take anyone to jail, not need to cite anyone, and have helped others.'”Sarah Mattes, communications supervisor for Public Health Madison &amp; Dane County, said the department is concerned about the health and safety of others that could be compromised at a protest.“While people may intend to practice physical distancing (while gathered), the reality of maintaining distance is very difficult,” Mattes said. “We understand that people are frustrated, but during a pandemic, a mass gathering is a dangerous way to express frustrations.”COPYRIGHT 2020 BY CHANNEL 3000.
