A Michigan mom is the face of the push to let kids play sports during COVID-19. Her social media is filled with conspiracies.


Jayme McElvany is the organizer of Let Them Play Inc., a group advocating for an end to COVID-19 restrictions halting high school sports. She’s a staple of news coverage on the issue, including the most recent rally at the Michigan Capitol Saturday.

“I feel like a mom to 60,000 kids right now and I couldn’t be prouder of all of them for continuing to battle for their right to play organized youth sports,” the Milan parent told MLive.

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) recently issued an order extending a pause on winter contact sports until Feb. 21. Most second-wave pandemic restrictions have been lifted — and the ban on indoor dining, which Republicans frequently railed against, is set to end Monday. Now some parents advocating for their kids to resume sports have taken center stage with rallies and a lawsuit threat, part of the months-long fight from a minority of Michiganders who oppose the Gov. Whitmer’s COVID response.

Similar Let Them Play groups have popped up in other states, following the pattern of early anti-lockdown protests that often shared organization from national groups and funders.
