STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- According to fliers posted around Tottenville, some non-essential workers planned an “End the Lockdown Rally” for Sunday at Conference House Park, in hopes of protesting the current “New York on PAUSE” mandates under Gov. Andrew Cuomo in an effort to stop the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19).

Last week, the governor announced the extension of the mandates until May 15 -- in coordination with other states.

But no one showed up for Sunday’s rally -- except the police.

Fliers promoting an “End the Lockdown Rally” were spotted at the CVS on Page Avenue, and on the corner of Main Street and Amboy Road.

The promotional material said the rally would take place Sunday morning at 11 a.m. on the Conference House lawn in Tottenville.

"No mask needed. Bring your children. Non-essential workers. If you’re sick still come, it’s your right!” stated the fliers.

The instructions were followed by the phrase “Keep America Great!" and “#MAGA," which stands for President Donald Trump’s original campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again.”

Around the time the rally was supposed to begin, police officers were seen canvassing the empty Conference House Park lawn. Police confirmed they were at the site in anticipation of the rally.

NYPD has been tasked by Mayor Bill de Blasio to issue fines for people who are not social distancing.

PROTESTS ACROSS THE NATION

Even though the Staten Island rally didn’t come to fruition, similar protests to end the lockdown have been happening across the nation, according to published reports.

On Wednesday, hundreds protested outside the Michigan Capitol and then created intentional gridlock in the city, TIME reported. In Austin, Texas, a “You Can’t Close America” rally was held outside the State Capitol building on Saturday, The New York Times reported. There are similar accounts coming out of Utah, California, Minnesota, Ohio and even New York.

The protests follow tweets from Trump calling for Minnesota, Michigan and Virginia to “LIBERATE.”

Trump has been outspoken about wanting to get the country back on track and reopen the economy. On Thursday, he provided state governors with a three-phase plan to reopen the country. He has continuously noted, however, that the decision for states to start lifting bans will remain up to their respective governor.

As of Saturday, at least 8,448 have died in New York City as a result of the coronavirus, and there were 126,368 confirmed cases of the illness.
