On March 13, 2020, the White House issued a proclamation declaring national emergency concerning the Novel Coronavirus Disease (“COVID-19”) outbreak. In response to COVID-19, Governor Gavin Newsom announced a Shelter in Place order the same day to combat and slow the spread of COVID-19. Since March 2020, and despite federal stimulus and small business efforts to pivot, adapt to new health and safety guidance, and shift to online sales where feasible, many small businesses continue to face enormous risks to their comeback.
