This press conference was thoughtful, clear, to the point, and a demonstration of what state, city, and restaurant owner coordination looks like.
Many thanks to the Governor, the Mayor of Chicago, and their staffs. Such a contrast to the lack of leadership from Washington.
Long but well worth watching.
