It's #TakeoutTuesday - drop a meal off for a neighbor, bring lunch and dinner home, have a meal delivered to an elderly friend!

Legislators return to Frankfort tomorrow and Wednesday, and they're having the last of their committee meetings this week. Then the 2020 session will be over. We're hoping no special session later this year!

Welcome April, when we hope our Kentucky legislators will pass a budget, say no to House Bills 470 and 475 enabling cities to expand taxing authority and then - go home! Call 800-372-7181 to say no to HB 470 & 475.

Some restaurants are closed all together, not knowing if they'll be able to reopen. How long will this last? It's a crucial question, and the answer may determine some restaurants' fate.

Our restaurants had to pivot when they were told no one could dine in their dining rooms. Most are providing delivery and carry-out meals, selling gift cards and limiting their costs. They're worried - no end in sight. If you're able please order meals and tip well!

As long as our legislators are meeting in Frankfort, we hope you will call and voice opposition to House Bills 470 and 475 - and any other measure that singles out restaurants for a tax for cities. Restaurant owners are fighting to stay in business, they don't need another tax.

Kentucky restaurants - see #5 of the Governor's order from last night. Carryout, curbside and delivery are all allowed!

Trapped at home? Make a call to 800-372-7181 and tell your legislators no to House Bills 470 and 475. Bored? Call 502-564-8100 and ASK for your legislator and engage them in all the reasons a restaurant tax is bad for Kentucky. Report back!

Governor Beshear said restaurants can sell alcohol with carry-out, but we haven't seen the language yet. A big win for KRA - we've been working on it all week!

While our legislators are still in Frankfort, let's not take our foot off the gas - let them know a tax on restaurants unfairly singles out one industry, an industry that is scraping to survive right now. Call 800-372-7181 #stoptherestauranttax #norestauranttax
