Civil disobedience? This isn't marching against Jim Crow, this is about Covid-19. If he wants to express that opinion fine, but what about the health of the staff he is making go to work?

How long do you propose we don’t go back to work for?

He already had an agreement for the factory to open in 1 week. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/09/business/coronavirus-elon...

“We were working on a lot of policies and procedures to help operate that plant and quite frankly, I think Tesla did a pretty good job, and that’s why I had it to the point where on May 18, Tesla would have opened,” Mr. Haggerty said. “I know Elon knew that. But he wanted it this week.”

so 1 more week beyond today is what the officials were planning on.
