Bill overview
This bill aims to limit the types of lawsuits businesses can face related to COVID-19 transmission. It requires federal courts to instruct juries that simply operating a business is not automatically considered negligent. The bill seeks to prevent lawsuits based solely on the act of opening a business and emphasizes the standard of reasonable care. It’s designed to reduce the number of frivolous lawsuits against businesses during and after the pandemic.
