A day before the president announced the further extension of lockdown on 10 April, our CEO Frank Mullen wrote to the president calling for easing to get healthy people and companies back to work.
He recommended a multi-pronged approach which included:
- a move from shutdown to easing, blending partial shutdown and return to work for healthy citizens
- develop and quickly implement a detailed plan to get the economy and businesses back on track
- test and return to work with a permit; those citizens who have been cleared should be issued with an official permit, and immediately be able to return to work.
- a unique solution for a unique country means pushing the boundaries of traditional thinking
Our biggest and most realistic economic relief and stimulus plan – is to get people and businesses back at work.
