Listen to a discussion on April 29, 2020 with Benny Galaz, small business owner of BK Tacos and El Berraco. Recently, BK has been giving Sonoran Hot Dogs to healthcare workers as a thank you for their sacrifices during the COVID-19 pandemic. We’re listening to his input on the effects of COVID-19 on his business, and the difficulty of receiving loans from the federal government and the City of Tucson. While the Somos Uno Fund was aimed at filling the gaps left by the federal government, the mechanism used to roll it out was full of inequities.
