Drivers swarm Michigan capital to protest coronavirus lockdown measures
Hundreds of cars, trucks and SUVs descended on Michigan's state capital Wednesday afternoon as part of a noisy protest against Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's social-distancing restrictions that critics say have gone too far.
Dubbed "Operation Gridlock" and organized by the Michigan Conservative Coalition, the protest did just that – creating bumper-to-bumper traffic throughout downtown Lansing as demonstrators blasted their horns, waved Americans flags and hoisted placards deriding Whitmer's orders and demanding that she reopen the state's economy.
The lockdown measures are meant to curb the spread of the coronavirus outbreak, but Whitmer has gone further than some other governors -- and the backlash in Michigan is among the most heated in the country.
