L.A. County Supervisor Janice Hahn, on Thursday, wrote a letter to California Governor Newsom urging him to allow smaller retail businesses statewide to reopen
wrote a letter to California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Thursday urging him to allow smaller retail businesses statewide to reopen under the same health protocols that “essential” retail businesses — such as Target, Home Depot and Costco — have been allowed to operate under. Read the letter below.
Hahn — whose district stretches from Marina del Rey in the north to San pedro in the South to Diamond Bar in the east — said that decisions that seemed necessary as the virus spread have created “winners and losers,” widely impacting smaller retailers. “This needs to change,” the veteran legislator wrote.
“If these measures are working to keep essential retail businesses like Target, Home Depot, and Costco open and safe, they can certainly be applied to all retailers,” Hahn maintained. She said that these moves are necessary as retail reopens and officials are “balancing the economic needs of our state’s businesses with the stark reality that the virus is still with us.”proposing that he amend CA's health order to let all retailers re-open with limited capacity, mask requirements, and physical distancing.
This is an important step we can take now to shore up our economy by keeping our small businesses alive.
