The Job Creators Network, a group representing small businesses, sponsored a full-page ad in the Wall Street Journal on Thursday calling for pandemic restrictions to be eased.
Formatted as a letter to top government infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci, the letter concludes that the group fears his "limited view is causing too much unneeded pain."
The ad, a “six-figure investment,†according to Alfredo Ortiz, president and CEO of JCN, is the first in a multimillion-dollar campaign aimed at reassuring the public that the economy can safely reopen.
“We're concerned about the country and fear that extending the shutdown will destroy the economy and have unanticipated negative health consequences for millions. We also want to reassure Americans that as states start to reopen, there are ways people can safely and smartly come out of their homes,†Ortiz said in a statement to the Washington Examiner.
