Protesters Demand Superior Mayor’s Resignation

Members of the Justice City Coalition, and community members are outside of Superior’s City Hall in response to controversial remarks made by Mayor Bruce Hagen calling President Obama a Muslim. 

The groups asked for a retraction, an apology and a resignation, none of which has happened. 

That’s why they are out in Superior Monday demanding the Mayor resign. 

The groups are also planning an economic boycott of any and all city events sponsored by the Mayor and his office. 

Mayor Bruce Hagen is out of the office on vacation, but FOX 21 did reach him by phone and he “This is a tragic event and he’s going to everything he can to bring our community together and accept responsibility for what happened.”

Hagen says he is planning a meeting with representatives of the local Muslim community. 

He also wants to work through this with the Muslim community and the people of Superior and try to rebuild and move on.
