The new economic task force needs to identify the abundance of regulatory obstacles standing in the way of an economic jump start.
In January, as career politicians in Washington, D.C. and their media allies smothered the American public in a sham impeachment, President Trump was working to establish a coronavirus task force with little to no fanfare. Primarily composed of healthcare professionals, that task force has led the way in the battle to"flatten the curve", advise the public, and gain private sector cooperation to produce more personal protective equipment for front-line healthcare workers.
But as a physician, I am also a former small business owner. And like so many small business owners all across the country, I have watched the devastation caused by China's exported pandemic. Businesses are shutting down, millions of jobs have been lost, and years of savings have been completely wiped out.
At Friday's daily coronavirus briefing, the president indicated he plans on announcing the formation of a second task force to better fight the second front of this war. Mr. President, not only do I endorse the formation of an economic task force, I strongly urge that you empower it to open up our country, ahead of schedule and defying the experts and the skeptics in the process.
It's also critical that the task force represents diverse sectors of our economy, starting with a robust delegation of small businesses. In addition to mom-and-pop small businesses, the travel, hospitality and food service industries have been clobbered and all deserve to have a seat at the table. Other considerations should be given to restaurants, live events and sports leagues, as well as all other entertainment and leisure industries.
