Legal Fund for Lisa Reeves Big Red Barber Shop
Donation protected
Lisa is the sole proprietor of Big Red Barber Shop (17yrs) located in the college town area of Ithaca, NY. This is a very small two chair shop with Lisa as the only being the only Barber.
..no employees.
Due to the pandemic declared back on March 21st Governor Coumo ordered all Barber shop to shut down.
As part of this shutdown, all sole proprietors effected where eligible for pandemic unemployment insurance pmts of 600/wk. This insurance was applied for multiple times and nothing ever recieved.
With out any income for the past seven weeks Lisa was forced ,financially, to open her Barber shop or risk losing both the business and house.
Lisa opened her shop on May 11th at 9am . One person at a time inside, masks being worn and disinfecting the shop between each customer
By 3pm she was ordered by the health department to immediately shut down.
Lisa has complied....for fear of losing her state license and not ever being able to reopen.
Lisa has hired a lawyer and has filed a law suit against Governor Coumo and the State of NY. We feel the state has completely ignored the Bill of Rights and our Constitutional right.
Lisa would never ask for any financial help from anyone......the legal that are coming are going to be a great obstacle.
Lisa is a very proud person and an incredibly hard working....the best person I have ever known. She has never accepted help from anyone..
