To establish in a new law that a business, facility owner and others are not liable for a claim that arises from exposure of an individual to COVID-19 on the premises if they were “in compliance with all statutes, regulations, rules, and other forms of guidance,” and if these are in conflict, if they “followed the strictest requirement.” Similar protections and limitations would apply to makers and distributors of personal protective equipment. The exemptions would apply only after March 9, 2020 and before July 15, 2020.
Referred to the Committee on Economic and Small Business Development
