A Maine restaurant has closed indefinitely after the co-owner defied the governor Friday by reopening and then lost state licenses to operate.
Rick Savage went on Tucker Carlson Live on Fox News Channel on Thursday night saying he planned to reopen his restaurant the next day despite an executive order from Maine Governor Janet Mills and calling on all restaurant owners in the state to do the same.
Ultimately, the president's executive order will block the issuing of about 52,000 green cards over a two-month period, according to the Migration Policy Institute. However, because nearly 27 million Americans have filed for unemployment in the past five weeks, some say the president did not go far enough. They say this summer will not be an appropriate time to bring foreign workers into the country, including Massachusetts.
