Opportunity 5

  • Title: Long Island Enters Phase 1 of Reopening: Will this help?

  • Description: Long Island heads into phase 1 of reopening, this may sound like good news but many believe since it is such little reopening; it is a sham created by governor Cuomo who is hesitant to start moving forward amid the coronavirus and its brutal effects on the greater New York areas. This leaves many small businesses waiting to reopen and try to salvage what they can to continue operating as a business after this is all over, the road ahead for these people is looking tough and grim.
