State Republican leaders push for aid to help bars, restaurants, etc.

Senators want the state to lift the 10 p.m. curfew and open restaurants in New York City to indoor dining.

They want no-interest or low-interest loans to keep businesses open.

Another bill calls for a one-year suspension of paying liquor license fees to give bars and restaurants a break.

Since the Republicans are in the minority, they are pressuring the Democrats to take their bills to the floor for debate.

State Senator Daphne Jordan from Saratoga County is sponsoring a bill to give a 30-day sales tax holiday for hospitality businesses.
