Millions of business owners across the country have closed, temporarily, due to the Stay At Home Government mandated law. Insurance Companies are denying insurance claims using the ‘Virus Exclusion’. The claim is actually Civil Authority. The insurance industry needs to stop skirting around the cause of Business Interruption and Extra Expense coverage caused by Government mandating the closing of businesses. If the insurance carriers stepped up to cover the losses, many business owners would be able to sustain and it would save millions of jobs across the country.

I am still reading every single comment you leave and the stories of shared struggle are truly humbling. Your experiences have opened my eyes to how widespread this burden really is and I am just doing my best to organize the information you have given me.

I truly never imagined that so many people would resonate with this struggle. You all have taken a simple concern and turned it into something that feels like a real bridge to a conversation with the insurance industry.

My local shop is dying and these insurance companies are sitting on billions while we lose everything. Pay the claims.
It’s Not right to not cover small business owners over something that is a national pandemic and forced closing
Open the state back up!!!!

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. We pay our premiums on time every single month and now when we actually need it they just hide behind fine print. Pay up!
