I have Dr notes for Uber and they said that I still don't qualify even though I have been exposed to someone who just came back from New York City and I have congestive heart failure and stage 3 kidney disease. They have not shown any compassion at all

I am self employed and have lost more than 30% of my income. Everything I am reading says I will not see any relief in the proposed stimulus packages. I cannot file for unemployment and do not see an end any time soon

Self-employed people like myself pay a lot of taxes every year, yet we're closed out of unemployment and related benefits. It's time for all of us to join forces, work together, and advocate for the interests of many, many creative entrepreneurs and solopreneurs who add a great deal of work, service, economic value, and betterment to our nation and local communities. WE need to stand up now; no one else will speak up and represent us. Let's unite and speak for ourselves, and each other!

I am Self Employed and so is my husband and both of our businesses have suffered due to many people who have regular jobs having to stay at home. And not to mention the dangers that we expose ourselves to going out there to continue trying to keep things going. We clean homes and that exposes us to potentially sick people and also more people are staying home and not having their regular schedule that would require them to need their home cleaned. This is not right to exclude individuals who have their own businesses.

Self Employed. No Employees. Rents Due. My business produces promotional products for small business and social engagement activities. My last orders were canceled. My lease will last 15 month. I will be flat broke in three months no revenue to make ends meet. No rent, no food, no health insurance. Nothing.
