Inslee gathers business leaders to talk about phased efforts to reopen

Gov. Jay Inslee on Thursday enlisted business leaders to support his four-phased approach to reopening Washington’s economy and continued to urge residents to remain at home unless they need to do something essential.

At a press conference Thursday, the governor also said it may be an option — not a requirement — for people to give their name and contact information when dine-in restaurant service resumes at half-capacity. Some have raised questions about privacy issues.

“I think where we’re going to end up is we’re going to give customers an option about leaving a phone number or the like so that they can be contacted.

“I do think it makes sense if you go to a restaurant and if you want to know later that you may have sat next to somebody that was infected, you may want to know about that for your own safety,” he added.
