As you have probably heard, yesterday Governor Ducey issued an Executive Order relating to the COVID-19 virus here in Arizona, watch here. This Executive Order halts elective surgeries within the state of Arizona to free up medical resources for the anticipated surge in COVID-19 cases in the coming weeks. It also activates the Arizona National Guard to assist grocery stores and food banks keep their supply chains flowing and their shelves stocked. Additionally, the order extends expiration dates on Arizona drivers licenses to help keep seniors at home and truck drivers on the road. Lastly, in counties with known COVID-19 cases, the Executive Order requires bars, movie theaters and gyms to close, and requires restaurants to close their dining rooms, allowing them to provided take out and delivery options only. These changes take effect at the close of business today.
These restrictions, though necessary, are going to hit these businesses and their employees very hard. I encourage you to show your support for our local restaurants by by ordering take-out or delivery as often as possible during the coming weeks. This link,
will take you to a listing of dozens of local restaurants which would very much appreciate your business!
Please remember to wash your hands, practice social distancing, telecommute, and check on your neighbors. We will get through this, TOGETHER!
Have a Great Weekend!
