This is for all essential employees, their families, and all who support a Stay at Home or Shelter in Place Mandate for the State of Tennessee.

Gov. Bill Lee is not listening to medical experts or the people of Tennessee who he was elected to serve. He seems much more concerned with the opinions of his business constituents and making money than with the health and safety of Tennessee's essential employees, both medical and non-medical. And we all know the medical personnel is overwhelmed.

We who work at hotels, restaurants, retail/wholesale/grocery stores, delivery drivers, and many more essential jobs are risking our well being and that of our families by going to work everyday. 

This is a job we are happy to do. We are volunteer spirited through and through and serving our community is what every one of us has in our hearts. 

But in order to safely continue serving these essential needs everyday, most of us on minimum wage or barely above it, we need the governor to enforce a stay at home or shelter on place mandate to force the masses to do just that. This will reduce the number of encounters we have with potentially contagious customers. We know the risk will never be zero and I know most of us accept that but he could help us greatly reduce the risk by giving this order 

Join together and show Bill Lee that it is OUR lives he is gambling with and we will not stand for it any longer. Stand up and make him see that WE matter and WE are his constituents too.
