MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- A group that plans to protest the RNC announced Thursday that it's suing the city of Milwaukee for violating its First Amendment rights.
At a press conference Thursday afternoon, organizers said the city is stonewalling them on protest permits, security zones and about the places where they're allowed to rally and march.
"They keep trying to say, well, you know, maybe we started at Zeidler Union Square Park, for example, and now we're doing at Pere Marquette Park - isn't that an improvement, don't you guys want to take that?" said Omar Flores, of Coalition to March on the RNC. "When really we're supposed to be able to march within sight and sound of the Fiserv and so we're not gonna agree to anything less than that."
The American Civil Liberties Union has filed the lawsuit on behalf of the Coalition to March on the RNC.
