The Independent Restaurant Stabilization Fund would jumpstart U.S. economy and protect 3.5M jobs

June 10, 2020

Today, leading economic firm Compass Lexecon released a new report confirming what we’ve been saying since this crisis began: Independent restaurants are vital to our nation’s economy, and helping us rehire, reopen, and stay open will generate vast economic benefits beyond our industry, protecting jobs and revitalizing businesses up and down the supply chain.

If you haven’t already, learn more about the report and demand your representatives establish the fund as soon as possible.

New report: $120B Independent Restaurant Stabilization Fund would jumpstart U.S. economy.

Between this new report and the latest unemployment numbers, it’s never been clearer that in establishing the Independent Restaurant Stabilization Fund, Congress can jumpstart the economy and help our communities recover even stronger.

In solidarity,

The IRC Team

P.S. Last week, Founding IRC member Chef José Andrés spoke with Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the White House COVID-19 task force, about how restaurants can reopen safely. In case you missed it, you can watch their discussion here.
