LACROSSE, Wis. – The College Republicans club at the University of Wisconsin-LaCrosse, which opposes masking, claims its members’ chalked sidewalk messages were erased in a violation of their  free speech rights. The GOP chalkings included “My Body, My Choice” and other anti-mask political messages. The Republicans reported seeing other students wash away their messages but didn’t take down down names. The university requires indoor masking against Covid spread. Asked about the issue, Chancellor Joe Gow said the university is firm in its masking policy while also defending the right of the Republicans to object.
