Restaurants have been one of the hardest-hit industries during the coronavirus pandemic, and the decision to help fund their survival has made its way to the Senate floor -- a proposed $120 billion relief package.
On a press call Friday, leaders from the Independent Restaurant Coalition, Robert St. John, Caroline Styne, Bobby Stuckey and Andrew Zimmern joined Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., who first introduced the RESTAURANTS Act in June, to discuss the financial state of the industry, new unemployment numbers and explain how this funding could be the last lifeline for eateries and bars that are the lifeblood of American communities.
