Across the nation, protests have broken out calling for states to "re-open" and end the stay-at-home orders put in place by Governors hoping to slow the spread of the coronavirus.

On Tuesday, protesters set their sights on the Pennsylvania State Capital Building in Harrisburg, to demand Gov. Tom Wolf reopen the state's economy even as new social-distancing mandates designed to counter the new virus took effect at stores and other commercial buildings.
