Local, independent restaurants are the backbone of our communities employing 13 million people and contributing $1 TRILLION to our economy.
SEVEN MILLION workers have been laid off to-date and millions more that contribute to the restaurant industry -- from farmers to beverage suppliers and delivery people -- will have their bills go unpaid
The restaurant industry needs a minimum $150 billion cash flow just to pay current bills, rent + taxes and that's before employees can get paid
There will be an estimated $225 BILLION DOLLAR LOSS in revenue over the next 3 months from the closure of independent restaurants that are  #TooSmalltoFail
