The number of coronavirus cases have now passed 11,000 in Wisconsin. The state saw an increase of 373 coronavirus cases Thursday. Deaths related to coronavirus have now reached 434.
Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers provided an update after the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled against the "Safer at Home" order.
The order went into effect on March 25 and was originally expected to expire on April 24, but Gov. Tony Evers extended the order until May 26. Republican legislators filed a lawsuit challenging the order, arguing that Department of Health Services Secretary-designee Andrea Palm exceeded her authority when she extended the order.
According to the Supreme Court decision, Palm's Emergency Order was declared "unlawful, invalid and unenforceable."
