Don’t Mess with Texas Restaurants

Body
When Texas restaurants and bars were first ordered to close their doors in mid-March, small business owners and their employees were left up the creek without a paddle. With no tables to wait on or customers to serve, it was impossible to earn a paycheck, cover the rent or even come close to making ends meet. In April, Texas restaurants lost $4.2 billion in sales, and 81 percent of restaurants were forced to lay off or furlough employees.
