New data from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services shows 154 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the state in the last 24 hours, bringing the statewide total to 4,199 cases. 2,065 of those cases are in Milwaukee County.

Meanwhile, in Brookfield, protesters gathered Saturday near Brookfield Square Mall on the corner of Bluemound Rd. and Moorland Rd. attempting to send a message to the governor to reopen the state. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Jim Owczarski posted videos of the protestors:

This first protest comes two days after Gov. Evers asked DHS Secretary-designee Andrea Palm to extend the "Safer At Home" order to May 26.

A rally is also planned for next Friday, April 24 outside the state capitol building in Madison, which is supposed to include a march around the capitol square.
