Michigan Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's order closing public school buildings also bans homeschooling, which is unconstitutional, contends a legal non-profit in the state.
"The Great Lakes Justice Center calls upon Gov. Whitmer to correct this unconstitutional action and assure parents in Michigan that they may continue to safely home school their own children while the EO is in effect," the organization said in a statement Thursday.
The April 2 order states "in-person instruction for pupils in kindergarten through grade 12 … is suspended for the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year."
It applies to all "non-public ... schools in the state."
"The governor clearly has the authority to close school buildings," the legal team acknowledged. However, "Michigan law defines home schools as nonpublic schools."
That means the executive order bars parents from directly teaching their children at home, the organization argued.
"While this may be an unintended consequence of faulty drafting, the EO's plain language bans all 'in-person instruction' of all children."

I am too. No coincidence that we cannot meet face to face.
I’m not going to bother even reading the rest of the article before calling B.S. on this story.
I would bet that the governor is just removing any requirements related to homeschooling and other private schooling for the rest of the year, such as testing, for example, or hours of instruction required.
If I’m wrong, I’ll stand corrected.
This Birch has Hitler DNA. Sieg Heil!, Heil Witmer, Sieg Heil!
WTF is wrong with this idiot bitch? This cannot stand!
A rally is scheduled in Lansing at noon on Wednesday. Let’s see if Emperor Gretchen makes a serious mistake by attempting to regain control of her subjects with her state army.
As I posted on #41 Once missteps are not addressed, precedents are set. I think the Great Lakes Justice Center is correct in calling her on it to set the record straight “in writing”.
This is not a time to be careless. This governor is reckless and making sure t’s are crossed and i’s dotted by any concerned citizen about the ramifications of her actions is warranted for the record.
This edict is unenforceable.
DUmocrat states should not cry about the dire circumstances which they have inflicted upon themselves by voting for Maoist wannabe dictators.

Perhaps the DUmocrat voter will finally see the unmasked party in all its glory and free themselves from it...but I highly doubt the present situation will have any lasting results.
Half Whitmer has gone insane
She is just auditioning to be Joementia Biden’s VP Choice.
Pretty soon she will say she was a Phone Call with Joementia back in December where they were working out an Action Plan for the upcoming Kung Flu Pandemic.
Gestapo Gretchen has jumped the shark.
She has totally pissed off the fishing and boating population of Michigan.

California 1,051,606.
Michigan 1,000,337.
Florida 922,597.
Minnesota 834,974.
Wisconsin 650,280.
This Whitmer chick is a real piece of work.
How many recall signatures does the petition to recall Gov Mao now have?
It was up in the millions, last I read.
She may, possibly, be more of a Marxist/Commie, than Hildebeast. She’s certainly in competition for the title.
Everything she says and does is exactly the opposite of what should be done. The only way a person can be so wrong so much of the time is through intent. She should be arrested for sedition and conspiracy.
Even Cuomo is not that bad.
And I’m shocked.......
I agree.
Yet we’ve been stuck with pelosi for 32 years. And yes even those not in her district. All 50 states has felt her idiotic moves.
Calling her NitWhitmer is too kind. This chick is straight-up nuts.
Half Wit is a tyrant wanna be.
