VA Business Owner to Gov. Northam: Use Your Terminology: ‘Abort’ the Stay-at-Home Order

Jenee Welsh, a small business owner attending the Reopen Virginia Rally in the state’s capital on Wednesday, called on Gov. Ralph Northam (D) to “abort” the state’s stay-at-home order.

“Our governor’s always preaching about pro-choice, pro-choice, yet all of us small business owners — we don’t have a choice right now,” Welsh, owner of Something Else Boutique, told Breitbart News as she held a sign reading “Terminology you understand! ABORT the stay at home order!”

Welsh said she employees three people and had to “completely shut down for a month” due to the coronavirus pandemic.

“So it was nothing. So my livelihood was, you know, gone and all the business loans didn’t count for people like us, because we’re so small,” she explained.

When asked what message she would like to send Northam, Welsh said, “Give us the choice like you’ve been preaching, that everyone has their own choice. Let us choose.”

Choose?? You mean like Gov. Northam and his family choosing to go to their
beach house in North Carolina every weekend?

Using chartered flights to First Flight airport where the authorities are not checking for out of state visitors. Also VA Gov signed into law to close fossil fuel plants eliminating jobs for Americans. Yet he charters private planes for his second home in OBX.

Maybe Northram earns his commission from First Flight?

Governors are to follow Donald Trumps plan for reopening, right? Not until Covid numbers decline for 14 straight days.

Why cant we just follow the Presidents plan?

No reopening till 14 consecutive days of declining numbers.... and... no state has that. So, why don't the protesters go picket at the Whitehouse?

Coonman don't stay home, he does what he wants. It is always his mantra, lie and take no responsibility for what he does or says.

I believe he is guilty. I hope it can be proven. Example, camera at gated community in Pirates Cove, Manteo - know it well. How did he get his food. Nearest grocery store in downtown Manteo about 2- 3 miles away. Small grocery store - he wouldn't be noticed - cameras? There are ways!
