We the undersigned urgently petition the Governor to abide by his original decision to allow Members of the Barbering and Cosmetology industry to resume their services as of May 20, 2020. Those members of our industry that choose to wait due to preparedness concerns should be allowed to remain closed, with any necessary supports, until the next phase of reopening. Reopening is not, and cannot be, one size fits all. We are essential, we are ready, let us open on the 20!
