1. About this report

Prepared by The COVID Project, Sept. 30, 2026. Selection: industry Fitness, Arts, Entertainment and Sports. Quarters: second quarter of 2020 (Apr. 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020; orders from Mar. 13, 2020), third quarter of 2020 (July 1, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020), fourth quarter of 2020 (Oct. 1, 2020 to Dec. 31, 2020), first quarter of 2021 (Jan. 1, 2021 to Mar. 31, 2021), second quarter of 2021 (Apr. 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021) and third quarter of 2021 (July 1, 2021 to Sept. 30, 2021). Options: the federal layer, agencies and boards, standing duties, group meetings and trade shows and the Service's fourteen sentences answered.

This report is a record of the governmental orders and related instruments that The COVID Project has retrieved, verified and indexed for the State, metropolitan area, industry and calendar quarters selected. Each instrument appears with its issuer, its number and title, its dates, the quarters in which it was in force, the functions of a business it reached, its operative words, its enforcement provision, a citation and an exhibit identifier. Every exhibit identifier resolves to the instrument's record at covidproject.com/library, and to the exhibit file, where held, at covidproject.com/exhibit.

The report is assembled from public governmental instruments, published organizer notices, published legal authorities and public court filings, and it reports what those documents say and when they were in force. It lists the instruments The COVID Project has verified and no others, so every count in it is a floor. It is not a filing, and it does not determine any person's eligibility for the Employee Retention Credit.

The report reproduces at covidproject.com/report?industry=17&quarters=2020Q2,2020Q3,2020Q4,2021Q1,2021Q2,2021Q3&federal=1&agencies=1&duties=1&meetings=1&answers=1. Every exhibit identifier in it resolves at covidproject.com/library/ followed by the identifier, and the exhibit file, where held, at covidproject.com/exhibit/ followed by the identifier.

Disclaimer

The COVID Project is a free public reference. This report is generated from public governmental instruments, published organizer notices, published legal authorities and public court filings that The COVID Project has retrieved and indexed; it reports what those documents say and when they were in force. It is not legal, tax or accounting advice, it does not create any professional relationship, it does not determine any person's eligibility for the Employee Retention Credit or the amount of any credit, and it is not a count of every order that existed. The COVID Project sells nothing and represents no one. Errors in any record can be reported through covidproject.com/contact with the exhibit identifier, and corrections are recorded with their dates.

2. Summary of findings

For each quarter selected, this section states what was in force for this selection on the quarter's first and last days, in the words of the Library's own quarter-by-quarter record for the State, the metropolitan area, the industry's regulators and the federal layer. Exhibit identifiers in parentheses name the instruments. The table that follows counts the instruments listed in section 5 by layer and quarter.

The federal layer of this report is the Library's two federal files: FED-A, the health, safety and transport layer, and FED-B, the commerce, travel, workplace and finance layer, including the orders of the federal courts those files hold. The ecosystem clusters and the federal agency clusters are listed in the Library's federal layer at covidproject.com/federal and are not part of this report's federal layer; a quarter page counts every federal-level instrument of the quarter across those clusters as well, so its figure is the larger of the two.

3. The statute and the test

An employer is an eligible employer for a calendar quarter under the governmental-orders test if

the operation of the trade or business described in clause (i) is fully or partially suspended during the calendar quarter due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings (for commercial, social, religious, or other purposes) due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)

CARES Act § 2301(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), Pub. L. 116-136, 134 Stat. 281, 348; I.R.C. § 3134(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), 135 Stat. 4, 177

Congress enacted those words four times and never changed them. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of March 27, 2020 enacted the Suspension Clause at section 2301(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), Pub. L. 116-136, 134 Stat. 281, 347-48, for wages paid after March 12, 2020 and before January 1, 2021 (§ 2301(m), 134 Stat. 351) (Ex. LAW-001). The Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020, Pub. L. 116-260, div. EE, §§ 206-207, 134 Stat. 1182, 3059-65 (Dec. 27, 2020), extended the credit to wages paid before July 1, 2021 and raised its rate to 70 percent; neither section touched the clause (Ex. LAW-002).

The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, Pub. L. 117-2, § 9651, 135 Stat. 4, 176 (Mar. 11, 2021), added section 3134 to the Internal Revenue Code, whose heading repeats the CARES Act title and whose Suspension Clause reappears word for word at 135 Stat. 177, for wages paid after June 30, 2021 (§ 3134(n), 135 Stat. 182) (Ex. LAW-003). The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Pub. L. 117-58, § 80604, 135 Stat. 429, 1341 (Nov. 15, 2021), ended the credit for calendar quarters beginning after September 30, 2021, and left the third quarter of 2021 in place (Ex. LAW-004).

The clause has seven elements, taken in the statute's order: orders; from an appropriate governmental authority; limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings (for commercial, social, religious, or other purposes); due to COVID-19; the operation of the trade or business fully or partially suspended; during the calendar quarter; and due to those orders. The words "essential," "comparable operations," "telework," "customers," "voluntary," "more than nominal," "10 percent," "directed at," "jurisdiction over the employer," "proximate," "independent" and "sufficient" appear in none of the four enactments. The credit runs by calendar quarter; the six quarters the clause governs are the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and the first, second and third quarters of 2021.

The partial-suspension test and how this report applies it

In this report the Internal Revenue Service is the "Service," the Government as a litigant is the "United States," Notice 2021-20, 2021-11 I.R.B. 922, is the "Notice," and the statutory text above is the "Suspension Clause." Tri-State is Tri-State Memorial Hospital v. United States, No. 2:25-cv-0181-TOR, ECF No. 38 (E.D. Wash. May 28, 2026), the one federal decision construing the clause's words. Doc. 44 is the United States' opposition and cross-motion for summary judgment in Stenson Tamaddon, LLC v. IRS, No. 2:24-cv-01123-SPL (D. Ariz. Jan. 6, 2025), ECF No. 44; Doc. 49 is the summary-judgment order in that case of June 20, 2025; and the Br. for Appellees is the United States' brief in the appeal, No. 25-4217 (9th Cir. Jan. 30, 2026).

The statute controls, and the Notice does not. The United States has told two federal courts so: the Notice "is merely guidance" and "lacks the force of law" (Doc. 44 at 19); "the United States is not arguing that the IRS interpretation has the force of law or is entitled to deference" (Doc. 44 at 31 & n.8); "[w]hether Notice 2021-20 exists or not, the statute will control whether a refund is warranted" (Doc. 44 at 24). The court held that "the Notice carries no force of law and is entitled to no deference" (Doc. 49 at 27) and that the ten percent figure "is not an exclusionary cut-off point, but rather a safe harbor" (Doc. 49 at 26). In the Ninth Circuit the United States called the Notice "nonbinding guidance," its ten percent provision "a quintessential safe harbor," and wrote that "[t]here is no question of deference here" (Br. for Appellees at 26, 37-38, 58).

"Fully or partially suspended" means what the words say. On definitions both parties agreed, Tri-State held: "a 'partial suspension' is a temporary delay, interruption, or termination of a portion an employer's business. The language is plain" (Tri-State at 8-9). The court refused to read "more than nominal" as "significant": "the plain language and ordinary meaning of partial and nominal do not suggest either of those interpretations" (Tri-State at 10-11). The Notice's ten percent rules are "only administrative guidance"; "the IRS Notice provides a method for the test to be met not as a requirement to meet the test" (Tri-State at 15-16). "Due to" means "because of," which "[b]oth Plaintiff and Defendant agree" (Tri-State at 17), and "the Court recognizes that 'due to' requires 'but-for' causation" (Tri-State at 19). The argument that the virus rather than the order caused the changes fails: "[s]ick patients and employees alone did not require additional protocols" (Tri-State at 20-21).

This report applies the test in five steps, with the instruments the Library holds for your selection and no others. Step one, the order: the issuer, the instrument by number and title, its dates and its exhibit; the Service's own Q&A-10 treats "orders, proclamations, or decrees" as orders "without regard to the level of enforcement" (Notice 2021-20, Q&A-10, at 927-28). Step two, the function it reached: the part of the business the order governed, whether the customer-facing floor, the back of house, the office, the workforce, the supply chain or the customer base. Step three, the change it compelled: the operative words, quoted from the instrument, and the sanction behind them. Step four, the quarter: the days on which the instrument was in force, tested against its dates. Step five, the statute's answer: a function is a portion of the operation; a compelled change is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; but for the order no law required it; and on the definitions the United States agreed to, the operation was partially suspended during the quarter due to the order.

The statute does not ask whether the business was "essential" or stayed open: the Notice's own Q&A-17, Example 4, calls an open hospital under an elective-procedure order partially suspended (Q&A-17, at 930). It does not ask whether the business could telework: Q&A-15 finds a partial suspension wherever a workplace closure "causes the employer to suspend business operations for certain purposes, but not others" (Q&A-15, at 929). It does not ask whose customers were under orders: "a business may be suspended 'due to' a government order addressing a third party" (Br. for Appellees at 41). It does not ask whether a compelled measure was "voluntary": Q&A-14 reaches only a suspension "not due to a governmental order" (Q&A-14, at 929). And it does not ask for a percentage: "The 10 percent is not determinative ... Properly understood, it isn't an eligibility requirement" (Doc. 44 at 14). The Service's letters ask each of those questions. The statute asks one, and this report answers it, instrument by instrument.

How this report was assembled

The report is drawn from The COVID Project's Orders Library, which indexes the governmental orders that limited commerce, travel and group meetings in the United States from March 2020 through September 30, 2021. The Library is organized in layers, and the report walks them in order for your selection: the federal layer (proclamations, executive orders, agency orders and rules, and the federal courts' general orders); your State, from its first declaration to the instrument that ended its general restrictions; your metropolitan area's health officers, mayors and courts; the sector regulators of your industry (licensing boards, health departments, alcohol and gaming regulators, labor agencies and federal program rules); the clusters of authorities that are easy to overlook (ports, aviation, courts, motor-vehicle offices, tribal and territorial governments); the standing duties of your State and of the United States (communicable-disease, workplace-safety and liability-shield statutes); and the organizers' notices of the trade shows, conventions, seasons and tournaments your industry lost.

Every record carries one of two grades, and the report shows only these two. Primary source read means the compiler read the issuing authority's own text: the order as published, the register page, the codified rule, the court's docket entry. Confirmed from a secondary source means the instrument's existence, number, date and substance were established from an identifiable secondary source and the primary text was not read. Records graded unverified or not retrieved never appear. Every exhibit was retrieved from the issuing authority's site or from the Internet Archive's capture of it, kept only if its text contained a distinctive phrase of the instrument, hashed at retrieval and re-checked by a second reviewer.

Every instrument has one exhibit identifier, used everywhere on the site and in this report. A State instrument carries its two-letter State code and a serial number (Ex. TX-004 is Texas Executive Order GA-09 of March 22, 2020); a metropolitan instrument carries MET and the metro code; a federal instrument carries FED; a sector regulator's instrument carries SEC and the industry number, and an organizer's notice adds GM; an overlooked authority carries AGY and its cluster; a standing duty carries DUT and the State code, or DUT-FED (Ex. DUT-FED-001 is the general duty clause of the Occupational Safety and Health Act); a legal authority carries LAW.

The dates decide the quarters. An instrument is in force in a quarter only if its effective date fell on or before the quarter's last day and its end date, if any, fell on or after the quarter's first day. The six quarters are the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and the first, second and third quarters of 2021. Because the CARES Act applies to wages paid after March 12, 2020, and the Service's Form 941-X instructions place the credit for wages paid March 13 through March 31, 2020 on the second-quarter return, the orders of March 13 through 31, 2020, the first stay-at-home and closure orders in the country, appear in the record of the second quarter of 2020.

4. How this business operates: Fitness, Arts, Entertainment and Sports

The conclusion: this industry was named first and released last. Between March 16 and April 3, 2020 every one of the fifty States and the District issued an order closing gyms and fitness centers, movie theaters, live-performance venues, bowling alleys, arcades and amusement facilities to the public by name (forty-seven statewide), or, in Missouri, South Dakota, Utah and (for gyms) Nebraska, imposed gathering prohibitions and county closure orders with the same operative effect; every casino and racino was closed by its gaming regulator; every professional, collegiate, scholastic and youth season stopped under the same instruments. 2020 Q2: reopening began April 24 (Georgia) and reached the Northeast, the West Coast and the largest Midwestern States only in late June or later (Massachusetts gyms July 6, New York gyms August 24 and New York City September 2, New Jersey gyms and indoor amusement September 1 and theaters September 4, Michigan gyms September 9 and theaters October 9, New York movie theaters October 23 outside New York City and March 5, 2021 within it); no facility reopened without a capacity cap (25-50 percent), a class or reservation condition, closed locker rooms, saunas and child care, and distancing of six to fourteen feet; live-audience sport was barred or capped at 10 percent everywhere. The Census Bureau's second-quarter 2020 services survey (SEC-17-007) reports arts, entertainment and recreation revenue down 51.2 percent quarter over quarter and 56.5 percent year over year, performing arts companies down 66.1 percent, spectator sports down 67.2 percent, promoters down 78.2 percent and amusement parks and arcades down 81.1 percent; BLS reports employment falling from 2,495,900 in February to 1,202,100 in April 2020 (SEC-17-006; the April release's 'minus 1.3 million', SEC-17-002). 2020 Q3: every reopened facility operated under a capacity order on July 1; Arizona re-closed gyms, theaters and water parks June 29 to August 10 and reopened them only on individual ADHS attestation (AZ-022, AZ-029); California closed indoor theaters, family entertainment centers, museums and cardrooms statewide and monitoring-list gyms July 13 (CA-010) and fixed the Blueprint tiers August 28 (gyms outdoor only in Purple, 10 percent Red, 25 percent Orange; theaters outdoor only in Purple, 25 percent or 100 in Red; amusement parks closed in every tier; SEC-17-016); West Virginia re-closed fairs, festivals and amusement parks July 14 (WV-042) and kept concert halls closed to March 25, 2021; South Carolina reopened concert venues, theaters and spectator sports only as 'gatherings' capped at 50 percent or 250 with masks (SC-027); Florida alone removed its caps (September 25, FL-047). 2020 Q4: twenty-two States and the District re-closed or re-capped the industry: Michigan (theaters, casinos, bowling, group fitness closed November 18 to December 20), Minnesota (all closed November 20 to December 18), Illinois Tier 3 (indoor amusement, theaters, spectator events, casinos and indoor group sports prohibited; gyms 25 percent), Washington (indoor operations closed November 17 to January 11), Oregon (EO 20-65 closures then Extreme Risk closures), California (Regional Stay at Home Order December 6 to January 25), Pennsylvania (indoor gyms and indoor entertainment prohibited December 12 to January 4), Rhode Island (Pause), Massachusetts (Step 2 venues closed, 25 percent), New Mexico (Red and Yellow closures), Colorado (Level Red gyms 10 percent, indoor events closed), Nevada (Pause, 25 percent, tournaments prohibited), Kentucky (gyms 33 percent, venues 25 per room), Delaware (classes ten, sports paused), the District (group classes suspended, high-contact sports prohibited, 25 percent or 250), Virginia (venues 30 percent or 250), Maryland, North Carolina, Nebraska, North Dakota (all youth and adult sports suspended), Idaho, Utah, Tennessee, Texas (50 percent in high-hospitalization Trauma Service Areas), Louisiana, Mississippi, New Jersey (indoor sports prohibited December 5 to January 2, SEC-17-014), New York (orange-zone gym closures; 10:00 p.m. closing), Montana, West Virginia, Iowa, Wyoming and Anchorage. 2021 Q1: every winter instrument was in force January 1 and the withdrawal was slower than in any other sector; on March 31, 2021 capacity or gathering orders reaching gyms, theaters or venues were in force in thirty-seven jurisdictions; arenas reopened at 10-20 percent with testing (New York February 23; New Jersey EO 225 March 1, SEC-17-026; Nevada Directive 037; Massachusetts Order No. 66 at 12 percent March 22). 2021 Q2: the stepped withdrawal ran from Indiana (April 6) to Rhode Island (July 6); on June 30, 2021 statewide caps on this industry remained in Washington, Oregon, New Mexico and Hawaii, Washington's over-10,000 rule and California's mega-event vaccination-or-test rule (from June 15, CA-029) bound every large venue, Delaware's tournament-approval rule ran to July 12, and unvaccinated-patron mask rules were in force in seven States. 2021 Q3: the broken leg and new orders. Hawaii re-capped gyms and high-risk activities at 50 percent and gatherings at 10 indoors and 25 outdoors August 10 (HI-025); Honolulu's Safe Access O'ahu required vaccination or a test at every gym, studio, theater and indoor attraction from September 13 (MET-HNL-035) and closed indoor events September 22; New York City's Key to NYC barred every indoor gym, class, theater, museum, arena, bowling alley, arcade and venue from admitting the unvaccinated from August 17 (MET-NYC-017 to -021); San Francisco (August 20, MET-SFO-011) and New Orleans (August 16, MET-MSY-029) did the same for gyms and indoor venues; Los Angeles County masked outdoor mega-events (August 20), required vaccination or a test at indoor mega-events of 1,000 (September 15) and ordered vaccination proof for outdoor mega-events and bars from October 7 (MET-LA-054, -056, -020); the State lowered its indoor mega-event threshold to 1,000 on September 20; Nevada conditioned mask-free large events of 4,000 on universal vaccination proof (Directives 049, 050) and masked every indoor space in high-transmission counties (Directive 047); New Mexico required vaccination proof of every State Fair entrant (NM-068); Washington masked outdoor events of 500 from September 13 and King County ordered vaccination verification for venues from October 25; statewide indoor mask orders applied inside every facility in Louisiana, Oregon, Illinois, New Mexico, the District, Hawaii, Nevada and Washington and by county or city in Los Angeles, the Bay Area, Sacramento, St. Louis, Kansas City, New Orleans, Philadelphia, Chicago, Cook County, Raleigh, Atlanta, Boston, Dane County, Denver, Louisville, Columbus, Juneau and Tucson; the school masking and quarantine orders of the 2021-22 year governed every youth league, camp and coach in a school building; the federal conveyance mask order and TSA directives governed every touring company, visiting team and patron who traveled, and the entry proclamations kept foreign artists, athletes and audiences out to November 8, 2021. Congress's Shuttered Venue Operators Grant statute (15 U.S.C. s. 9009a, December 27, 2020; SEC-17-001) is the legislature's own finding that live venues, theatrical producers, performing arts organizations, museums, motion picture theatres and talent representatives were shuttered. BLS: employment in September 2021 was 2,097,700, 398,200 (16.0 percent) below February 2020 (SEC-17-006). BEA: performing arts real value added fell 37.9 percent in 2020 and promoters 72.8 percent (SEC-17-009).

For each quarter selected, the instruments in force appear by layer: the federal layer (the Library's FED-A and FED-B files, including the federal court orders they hold), the State, the metropolitan area, the industry's regulators, and the agencies, boards and authorities whose orders resolve to the State. Within a layer the instruments that carry the industry's key limitation types come first, then the rest in date order. An instrument in force across several quarters is described in full where it first appears and listed in compact form in each later quarter.

CMS, in collaboration with medical societies and associations, recently created recommendations to postpone non-essential surgeries and other procedures. This document provides recommendations to limit those medical services that could be deferred, such as non-emergent, elective treatment, and preventive medical services for patients of all ages. A tiered framework is recommended to prioritize services and care to those who require emergent or urgent attention to save a life, manage severe disease, or avoid further harms from an underlying condition.... CMS urges healthcare facilities and clinicians to consider the following tiered approach to curtailing non-emergent, elective medical services and treatment.

To expand capacity to care for these patients and to conserve adequate staff and supplies, especially personal protective equipment (PPE), on March 18 the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) recommended limiting non-essential care and expanding surge capacity into ambulatory surgical centers and other areas.... Therefore, if states or regions have passed the Gating Criteria (symptoms, cases, and hospitals) announced on April 16, 2020, then they may proceed to Phase I.... Maximum use of all telehealth modalities is strongly encouraged. However, for care that cannot be accomplished virtually, these recommendations -- the first in a series of recommendations -- may guide healthcare systems and facilities as they consider resuming in-person care of non-COVID-19 patients in regions with low incidence of COVID-19 disease.

8. Partial suspension, element by element, for this business

This section applies the five-step test of section 3 to a business of the industry Fitness, Arts, Entertainment and Sports with the instruments this report found for the quarters selected and no others: the order; the function of the business it reached; the change it compelled, in its own words; the days of the quarter on which it was in force; and the statute's answer. Where the Library holds only federal-layer and standing-duty instruments for a quarter, the section says so and applies the test to those instruments.

Second quarter of 2020 (Apr. 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020; orders from Mar. 13, 2020)

Step one, the orders. In the second quarter of 2020 the Library holds 186 instruments in force for this selection: 7 instruments from the regulators of Fitness, Arts, Entertainment and Sports (Governor Philip D. Murphy, Executive Order No. 149 (2020) (May 29, 2020) (Ex. SEC-17-024); Bureau of Labor Statistics, The Employment Situation, April 2020 (USDL-20-0815) (May 8, 2020) (Ex. SEC-17-002); Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Considerations for Events and Gatherings (page as captured June 12, 2020) (May 20, 2020) (Ex. SEC-17-005); and 4 more) and 179 federal instruments (The President and the White House Coronavirus Task Force, Guidelines for Opening Up America Again (Apr. 16, 2020) (Ex. FED-192); CMS, Quality, Safety & Oversight Group, QSO-20-14-NH, Guidance for Infection Control and Prevention of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Nursing Homes (Mar. 9, 2020; REVISED Mar. 13, 2020) (Ex. FED-097); Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, HHS (CDC Director), CDC No Sail Order and Suspension of Further Embarkation (Mar. 14, 2020) (Ex. FED-027); and 176 more). Each is an order, proclamation, rule or decree of a governmental authority with jurisdiction over the place or the trade, and each is listed in section 5 with its exhibit.

Step two, the function reached. The instruments reached these functions of business of the Fitness, Arts and Entertainment industry, as the Library records them: facilities (FC; Ex. SEC-17-024, Ex. SEC-17-007); classes and group activities (CL; Ex. SEC-17-024, Ex. SEC-17-009); performances, theaters, cinemas and live events (PE; Ex. SEC-17-005, Ex. SEC-17-007, Ex. SEC-17-009); sports, leagues and tournaments (SP; Ex. SEC-17-024, Ex. SEC-17-005, Ex. SEC-17-007); amusement, attractions, bowling and arcades (AM; Ex. SEC-17-007); marketing, events and shows (MK; Ex. SEC-17-005); workforce availability (WF; Ex. SEC-17-024, Ex. SEC-17-002, Ex. SEC-17-006); the customer base (CB; Ex. SEC-17-024, Ex. SEC-17-007).

Step three, the change compelled. Governor Philip D. Murphy, Executive Order No. 149 (2020) (May 29, 2020) (Ex. SEC-17-024) ordered: "14. High school sporting activities under the jurisdiction of the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association ('NJSIAA') may resume in accordance with reopening protocols issued by NJSIAA... However, these high school sporting activities cannot resume any earlier than June 30, 2020. 15.…" Enforcement: N.J.S.A. App. A:9-49, -50 (para. 20) Bureau of Labor Statistics, The Employment Situation, April 2020 (USDL-20-0815) (May 8, 2020) (Ex. SEC-17-002) ordered: "In April, employment in leisure and hospitality plummeted by 7.7 million, or 47 percent.... Employment also fell in the arts, entertainment, and recreation industry (-1.3 million) and in the accommodation industry (-839,000). Table B-1: Arts, entertainment, and recreation 2,472.4 (Feb. 2020)...…" Enforcement: n/a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Considerations for Events and Gatherings (page as captured June 12, 2020) (May 20, 2020) (Ex. SEC-17-005) ordered: "Lowest risk: Virtual-only activities, events, and gatherings. More risk: Smaller outdoor and in-person gatherings... Highest risk: Large in-person gatherings where it is difficult for individuals to remain spaced at least 6 feet apart and attendees travel from outside the local area" Enforcement: none in itself; incorporated by reference in State venue rules (e.g., NE-036, TN-058, IL-019 DCEO guidance) The operative words of every other instrument of the quarter are quoted in section 5.

Step four, the quarter. The quarter's record runs from Mar. 13, 2020 to June 30, 2020, 110 days. Executive Order No. 149 (2020) (Ex. SEC-17-024) was in force from June 15, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020, 16 of the quarter's 110 days; The Employment Situation, April 2020 (USDL-20-0815) (Ex. SEC-17-002) was in force from May 8, 2020 to June 30, 2020, 54 of the quarter's 110 days; Considerations for Events and Gatherings (page as captured June 12, 2020) (Ex. SEC-17-005) was in force from May 20, 2020 to June 30, 2021, 42 of the quarter's 110 days. Of the 7 instruments in the quarter's record, 0 were in force on its first day, 3 on its last day and 0 on every day of the quarter.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of a business of the Fitness, Arts and Entertainment industry; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the second quarter of 2020 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19. The statute asks nothing further: not whether the business was essential or stayed open, not whether it could telework, not whose customers the orders addressed, and not for a percentage.

Third quarter of 2020 (July 1, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020)

Step one, the orders. In the third quarter of 2020 the Library holds 170 instruments in force for this selection: 7 instruments from the regulators of Fitness, Arts, Entertainment and Sports (Governor Philip D. Murphy, Executive Order No. 149 (2020) (May 29, 2020) (Ex. SEC-17-024); California Department of Public Health (State Public Health Officer), Blueprint for a Safer Economy: Activity and Business Tiers chart (with updates of Sept. 2020, Oct. 20, 2020, Mar. 11, 2021 and Apr. 2, 2021) (Aug. 28, 2020) (Ex.

FED-097); Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, HHS (CDC Director), CDC No Sail Order and Suspension of Further Embarkation (Mar. 14, 2020) (Ex. FED-027); and 160 more). Each is an order, proclamation, rule or decree of a governmental authority with jurisdiction over the place or the trade, and each is listed in section 5 with its exhibit.

Step two, the function reached. The instruments reached these functions of business of the Fitness, Arts and Entertainment industry, as the Library records them: facilities (FC; Ex. SEC-17-024, Ex. SEC-17-016, Ex. SEC-17-013, Ex. SEC-17-015); classes and group activities (CL; Ex. SEC-17-024, Ex. SEC-17-016, Ex. SEC-17-013, Ex.

SEC-17-016, Ex. SEC-17-013, Ex. SEC-17-015).

Step three, the change compelled. Governor Philip D. Murphy, Executive Order No. 149 (2020) (May 29, 2020) (Ex. SEC-17-024) ordered: "14. High school sporting activities under the jurisdiction of the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association ('NJSIAA') may resume in accordance with reopening protocols issued by NJSIAA...

App. A:9-49, -50 (disorderly persons offense; fines and imprisonment), recited in the order The operative words of every other instrument of the quarter are quoted in section 5.

Step four, the quarter. The quarter's record runs from July 1, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020, 92 days. Executive Order No. 149 (2020) (Ex. SEC-17-024) was in force from June 15, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020, 92 of the quarter's 92 days; Blueprint for a Safer Economy: Activity and Business Tiers chart (with updates of Sept.… (Ex.

Of the 7 instruments in the quarter's record, 2 were in force on its first day, 5 on its last day and 2 on every day of the quarter.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of a business of the Fitness, Arts and Entertainment industry; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the third quarter of 2020 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19. The statute asks nothing further: not whether the business was essential or stayed open, not whether it could telework, not whose customers the orders addressed, and not for a percentage.

9. The Service's sentences, answered for Fitness, Arts, Entertainment and Sports

The Service's letters, examination reports and public guidance take, in one form or another, fourteen positions against employers of this class, among them the position that no governmental orders related to COVID-19 were in effect during the claimed quarters and the related positions on essential-business status, continued operations, telework and the extent of a claimed partial suspension. Each is stated below in the Service's general vocabulary and answered from the statute's text, from Tri-State, from the instruments with their exhibit identifiers and from the United States' own representations to two federal courts. None survives the public record.

Each sentence below is stated in the Service's general vocabulary and answered from the industry analysis; the full answer, with its footnotes, is on the ground page linked beneath it.

Sentence 1: 1. No orders in effect

There were no government orders related to COVID-19 in effect during the quarter which could have fully or partially suspended your trade or business.

The sentence is a statement of fact, and it is false for every one of the six quarters. For the second quarter of 2020 the orders were the closure orders of every State and the District naming this industry's facilities (Ex. NY-010; Ex. CT-004; Ex. MI-005; Ex. CO-004; Ex. WA-009; Ex. TX-003; Ex. FL-008; Illinois Executive Order 2020-10; Ex. OR-007; Virginia Executive Order 53; Ex. MA-008; Ex. NC-004), the stay-at-home orders of forty-two jurisdictions (Ex. LAW-201) and the gaming regulators' closures (Ex. IL-059; Ex. IN-083; Ex. MO-026; Ex. MD-035; Ex. NV-004). For the third quarter of 2020 they were the capacity orders of every reopened jurisdiction and the re-closures of Arizona, California, New Jersey, New York and Michigan (Ex. AZ-022; the State Public Health Officer's order of July 13, 2020; Ex. SEC-17-013; Ex. NY-110; Ex. MI-044). For the fourth quarter of 2020 they were the winter re-closures and re-caps of twenty-two States and the District and the re-tightening orders of nine more (Ex. MI-062; Ex. MN-032; Illinois Executive Order 2020-73; Ex. WA-047; Ex. OR-035; California's Regional Stay at Home Order; Ex. PA-028; Ex. MA-040; Colorado's Second Amended Public Health Order 20-36; Ex. NV-030). For the first quarter of 2021 they were the winter orders and their stepped successors, in force in thirty-seven jurisdictions on March 31, 2021 (Ex. MET-LA-014; Ex. MI-064; Ex. MN-037; Ex. NY-042; Ex. SEC-17-026; Ex. MA-045). For the second quarter of 2021 they were the capacity orders that ran to their stepped expiry between April 6 and July 6, 2021 (New York Executive Order 202.108; Ex. MA-048; Ex. NJ-050; Ex. WA-101; Ex. OR-043; New Mexico's Public Health Order of June 30, 2021; Ex. RI-047). For the third quarter of 2021 they were the sixty-odd instruments of the third-quarter-2021 section, subpart (B): Hawaii's caps (Ex. HI-025), Key to NYC (Ex. MET-NYC-017), San Francisco's order (Ex. MET-SFO-011), New Orleans's rule (Ex. MET-MSY-029), Safe Access O'ahu (Ex. MET-HNL-035), the Pasadena and Los Angeles County mega-event orders (Ex. MET-LA-054; Ex. MET-LA-056; Ex. MET-LA-019), Nevada's Directives 047, 049 and 050 (Ex. NV-041; Ex. NV-043; Ex. NV-044), Washington's orders (Ex. WA-078; Ex. WA-084; Ex. WA-085), the statewide face-covering and exposure-control orders of Louisiana, Oregon, Illinois, New Mexico and the District (Proclamation 137 JBE 2021; Ex. OR-048; Executive Order 2021-20; the Public Health Order of August 17, 2021; Ex. DC-057), the federal conveyance, entry and border orders (Ex. FED-020; Ex. FED-052; Ex. FED-207; Ex. FED-234) and the local face-covering and exposure-control orders of more than twenty jurisdictions. The Service's own guidance lists a mayor's closure order, a shelter-in-place proclamation and a curfew as governmental orders; the plaintiff in Stenson Tamaddon told the Ninth Circuit that "[a] network of more than 4,200 orders at the state and local level limited most businesses"; and the Department of Health and Human Services' own dataset records 4,218 of them. The letter does not say what record the Service consulted; whatever it was, it was not the public record. The sentence describes a period that did not occur.

Sentence 2: 2. The business that remained open

The employer operated an essential business and remained open.

The statute does not contain the word "essential." No closure order of March 2020 classed a gym, studio, theater, cinema, live venue, bowling center, arcade or amusement park as essential; the Notice's own first example of a qualifying order is a list of those categories closed as non-essential. Where a facility remained open under a capacity, class, amenity, distancing, reservation, spectator or face-covering condition, the Notice's own Q&A-11 says that an employer permitted to operate "may be considered to have a partial suspension of operations" where the order limits a portion of its operations, and Tri-State holds that a "partial suspension" is "a temporary delay, interruption, or termination of a portion an employer's business." A gym at twenty-five percent with its locker rooms closed, a theater at fifty seats per screen, a league without spectators and a park at fifteen percent were open in part and suspended in part, and the part suspended is the part the order named. The designation is the premise of the conditions the orders imposed, not an answer to them.

Sentence 3: 3. Stay-at-home orders directed to the public

Stay-at-home orders directed to the public are not considered; only orders directed at business operations count.

The statute says nothing of the source or addressee of the order; it describes the order by its subject ("commerce, travel, or group meetings") and its cause (COVID-19), and it adds "(for commercial, social, religious, or other purposes)" to make the breadth of the object explicit. The Notice's own list of governmental orders includes "[a] State's emergency proclamation that residents must shelter in place for a specified period" and "[a]n order from a local official imposing a curfew on residents." The United States told the District Court what the qualifying instruments are:

orders, proclamations, or decrees from the Federal government or any State or local government

Sentence 4: 4. Comparable operations through telework

The employer could have continued comparable operations through telework.

"Comparable operations" and "telework" appear in Q&A-15 and Q&A-16 of the Notice and nowhere in the statute, which asks whether the operation was partially suspended. The product of this industry is presence: a class taught in a room, a film projected to an audience, a game played before a crowd, a ride operated for a queue, a lane bowled, a museum walked. A streamed class is not the operation of a studio ordered closed; a virtual gala is not the operation of a performance venue; a parking-lot workout is not the operation of a gym at twenty-five percent with its amenities closed. The Notice itself says that where a closure causes the employer to suspend operations "for certain purposes, but not others," the employer "may be considered to have a partial suspension," and the United States so represented to the District Court. The telework mandates catalogued under the administrative function above moved the box office and the league office out of their premises by compulsion, and that compelled removal is itself a partial suspension of the administrative function; the floor, the stage, the field and the lane admit of no remote operation at all. The position adds words to the statute, and adding words is "Congress's province."

Sentence 5: 5. Orders that affected customers, not the employer

The orders affected the employer's customers, not the employer (Q&A-13).

Q&A-13 reaches, by its terms, only an employer that "suspends some or all of its operations because its customers are subject to a government order requiring them to stay at home or otherwise causing a reduction in demand." It has no application to an employer whose own facility, class, performance, game or attraction was closed or capped by order, which is every employer in this industry in every quarter. Where the order was addressed to the customer, it was an order "limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings" in terms, and the Notice lists it as a qualifying order; the customer exclusion as broadened on March 1, 2021 ("or otherwise causes a reduction in demand") appeared after the wages of every 2020 quarter had been paid. The vaccination-proof orders of 2021 Q3 were addressed to the "covered entity," barred it from admitting a class of persons, compelled it to verify, post and record, and fined it; Tri-State holds that an order that "required Plaintiff to only employ vaccinated individuals" caused changes that "were not voluntary." The position mistakes the addressee of the order for its object, and the statute is concerned only with the object.

Sentence 6: 6. Voluntary measures

The employer's measures were voluntary (Q&A-14).

Q&A-14 reaches only a suspension "not due to a governmental order." A change made because an order required it is not voluntary; Tri-State so held of the hospital's protocols, and the court refused the argument that the employer would have made the changes regardless because "[s]ick patients and employees alone did not require additional protocols" and on that theory "there are not many businesses or any business that would be eligible under the ERC at all." No gym chose twenty-five percent occupancy; no theater chose fifty seats per screen; no league chose to play without spectators; no venue in New York City chose to verify vaccination at its door under a $1,000 fine. But for the orders, and the standing law to which those orders gave their COVID-19 content, none of those changes would have been made.

The premise fails on the Notice's own terms and on the law that stood beneath the orders. The United States and the District Court have defined the excluded employer as one that chooses:

Sentence 7: 7. The ten percent figure as a floor

The portion of the business affected was not more than nominal (the 10 percent figure applied as a floor).

The ten percent figure is not in the statute; it appeared in the Notice on March 1, 2021; and the United States has represented to two federal courts what it is:

"[e]ffectively ... a safe harbor"; "not an eligibility requirement"; a line that "does not impose a threshold or place a limitation on receiving the credit"; "sufficient[,] though not necessary[,] conditions"; "a quintessential safe harbor"; "a safe harbor rather than a hard floor"; the Service "did not say that a taxpayer cannot qualify for the ERC if they have been impacted less than 10 percent."

Sentence 8: 8. Masks, gloves, spacing and screening

The required modifications (masks, gloves, spacing, screening) had only a nominal effect on operations (Q&A-18).

The masks-and-aisles sentence of Q&A-18 addresses "[m]odifications altering customer behavior (for example, mask requirements or making store aisles one way to enforce social distancing) or that require employees to wear masks and gloves while performing their duties." It does not address the modifications that governed this industry: occupancy caps of ten to fifty percent, class caps of ten, closed locker rooms, saunas, showers and child care, six to fourteen feet between exercisers, reservation-only entry, no spectators, no indoor performance, no live entertainment, plan approval for every tournament, attestation and inspection before reopening, and vaccination verification at every door. The same Q&A lists "limiting occupancy to provide for social distancing," "requiring services to be performed only on an appointment basis" and "changing the format of service" as compelled modifications, and Q&A-17 and Q&A-19 treat an employer whose workplace "may remain open for other limited purposes" or whose hours are limited as partially suspended. The sentence also appeared on March 1, 2021, after the wages of every 2020 quarter had been paid. And the face-covering orders of this industry were not the masks of a grocery aisle: they were workplace infection-prevention and exposure-control requirements imposed on the business, with a duty to post and to exclude and enforcement by fine, reaching every exerciser on a gym floor, every spectator in a stadium of five hundred and every patron of a theater, and each is a limitation on the commerce of a business whose product is exertion, performance and gathering. The position applies a sentence about aisles to orders that closed floors.

Sentence 9: 9. A declaration of emergency

A declaration of emergency is not an order (Q&A-10).

Q&A-10 says that a declaration "is not sufficient to rise to the level of a governmental order if it does not limit commerce, travel, or group meetings in any manner," and that a declaration that limits them "in a manner that does not relate to the suspension of an employer's operation" does not qualify. This analysis treats the declarations as the predicates they are and treats as orders the instruments issued under them: the closure, capacity, gathering, spectator, face-covering, vaccination-proof and quarantine orders of the layers and six-quarters sections, every one of which limited commerce, travel or group meetings in terms and related to the suspension of this industry's operations. Where a declaration itself limited commerce (Alabama's orders of the State Health Officer; Hawaii's supplementary proclamations; Georgia's executive orders; Honolulu's emergency proclamations), it is cited for its operative clauses. The position answers an argument this analysis does not make.

Sentence 10: 10. The supplier not itself closed

The supplier was not itself closed by order; supply-chain effects are too attenuated (AM 2023-005).

The Notice's Q&A-12 makes an employer eligible "because its operations have been suspended due to the governmental order that suspended operations of its supplier"; the United States told the Ninth Circuit that the rule "never even mentions a 'physical[ ] clos[ure]' order against the supplier" and told the District Court that the Notice contains no requirement that the employer "absolutely could not operate" without the supplier's product. The Chief Counsel memorandum that adds a "narrow, limited exception" and an alternate-supplier requirement "may not be used or cited as precedent," and Tri-State found its scenarios "not comparable or persuasive." This industry's suppliers were closed by order: the school districts and park districts whose gymnasiums, fields and pools house every youth league; the venues in the next State; the convention authorities that converted their halls; the State fair boards that cancelled their seasons; the film distributors whose slates were withdrawn as theaters closed by order in every State; the consulates that admitted foreign artists; the cruise lines under the Conditional Sailing Order; the child-care centers and schools that let the workforce work. Causation is but-for, and it runs through a counterparty as surely as through a premises.

Sentence 11: 11. Orders lifted before the quarter

The orders had lifted before the quarter began; any effect was a lingering effect.

The clause asks whether the operation was "fully or partially suspended during the calendar quarter due to orders," not whether an order was in effect during the quarter; "during the calendar quarter" modifies "suspended." For every quarter through the second quarter of 2021 the premise is false in fact: orders were in force on the first and last day of each, as the six-quarters section states. For the third quarter of 2021 the premise is false in fact as well: the third-quarter-2021 section, subpart (B), names the instruments issued inside the quarter (Hawaii's caps of August 10; Key to NYC of August 17; San Francisco's order of August 20; New Orleans's rule of August 16; Safe Access O'ahu of September 13; Honolulu's event closures of September 22; the Pasadena and Los Angeles County mega-event orders of August 19-20 and September 15; Nevada's Directives of July 30, August 16 and September 2; Washington's orders of August 23 and September 13; the statewide face-covering and exposure-control orders of July 31, August 4, August 13, August 20 and August 30; the local face-covering and exposure-control orders of July 26 onward; the school orders of August and September; the TSA directive of September 14; the border notices of July 22, August 23 and September 22) and the instruments never lifted (the conveyance order; the entry proclamations; the sailing, testing and Title 42 orders; the OSHA standard; the State emergencies; the quarantine orders). And where this analysis relies on the continuing suspension the earlier orders caused, it does so on the orders' own step dates, on Tri-State's definition of a suspension as a "delay" and on the Notice's Q&A-22 and Q&A-16, not on any theory that an expired order suspended anyone by its own force. The Chief Counsel memorandum's "residual delays" sentence asks the wrong question and "may not be used or cited as precedent." The position is answered by the calendar.

Sentence 12: 12. The decline in gross receipts

The employer did not experience the required decline in gross receipts.

The gross-receipts test is the second of two independent routes to eligibility, and this analysis relies on the first. Congress wrote a percentage into the gross-receipts clause and none into the Suspension Clause, and Tri-State holds that the gross-receipts prong shows "an employer may be economically affected without any partial or full suspension of trade or business operations due to a government order," which "does not make the Gross Receipts Test superfluous with the plain language interpretation of 'partial suspension' but instead logical within the scope of the act." The Service's own Q&A-13 says that an employer whose operations are suspended due to an order is eligible whether or not it also meets the gross-receipts test. The Census Bureau's measure of this industry's second quarter of 2020, a 51.2 percent fall in revenue from the preceding quarter and 56.5 percent from the prior year, is recited here as a fact about the period, not as the ground of eligibility. The position answers a prong not relied on.

Sentence 13: 13. Guidance, recommendations and best practices

The instruments relied on are guidance, recommendations or best practices, not orders.

Every instrument relied on in this analysis carries an operative clause and an enforcement clause: executive orders under emergency-powers statutes with misdemeanor penalties; health officers' orders under communicable-disease statutes with fines, license suspension and closure; gaming regulators' orders under gaming statutes; departmental sector rules that carried the force of the executive order that authorized them and were enforced by the licensing and inspection powers of the issuing department (New York's interim guidance under Executive Order 202.6 and its successors; Connecticut's sector rules under Executive Order 7ZZ; Ohio's mandatory requirements as Director's orders; Washington's requirements under the proclamations; Kentucky's Healthy at Work requirements under the Cabinet's orders); federal orders under 42 U.S.C. § 264, 49 U.S.C. § 114(l)(2), 8 U.S.C. § 1182(f), 19 U.S.C. § 1318(b) and 29 U.S.C. § 655(c) with civil and criminal penalties. Where an instrument was advisory this analysis says so and does not rely on it: the Allegheny County Stay-at-Home Advisory of November 18, 2020, Cuyahoga County's face-covering advisory of August 4, 2021, the Columbus indoor face-covering advisory of August 5, 2021, the regional recommendation of the Puget Sound health officers of July 26, 2021 and the President's Guidelines are each described as what they are. The New Orleans "Guidelines" were adopted by Public Health Advisory under La. R.S. 29:727 with a $500 fine and six months' confinement and enforced from August 23, 2021 by license suspension; the label on a document does not fix its legal character, and the Notice itself says that whether an instrument is a governmental order "is determined without regard to the level of enforcement." The position is answered by the enforcement clauses.

Sentence 14: 14. The ordinary meaning of "order"

"Order" must be given its ordinary meaning.

Agreed, and applied. In March 2020 an "order" was "a command, direction, or instruction" given by an authority, and a "decree" or "proclamation" its formal cousin; the dictionaries of the month of enactment are in the Library. Every instrument relied on here is a command of an authority with power over its subject: a governor's executive order, a health officer's order, a mayor's emergency executive order, a county judge's order, a board of health's regulation, a gaming commission's order, a proclamation of the President, an order of the CDC, a security directive of the TSA, a notification of the Department of Homeland Security, a rule of a State health authority, an administrative order of a court. The ordinary meaning of "order" does not carry the glosses the Service attaches to it (directed at the business; not a declaration; not guidance; not a customer order), each of which is answered above. Each of these instruments commanded, and each was enforced; that is the ordinary meaning of "order," and it is satisfied on every page of the Library.

The Service is free to disagree about the weight of these instruments. It is not free to say they did not exist.

11. How to use this report

Keep this report with your payroll records and the other records that support your claim. The Notice itself describes what those records are. Q&A-70 says an employer "will adequately substantiate eligibility for the employee retention credit if the employer creates and maintains records that include," among other things, "any governmental order to suspend the employer's business operations" and "any records the employer relied upon to determine whether more than a nominal portion of its operations were suspended due to a governmental order or whether a governmental order had more than a nominal effect on its business operations" (Notice 2021-20, 2021-11 I.R.B. 922, Q&A-70, at 944-45). Q&A-71 says to keep those records "for at least 4 years after the date the tax becomes due or is paid, whichever comes later" (Q&A-71, at 945). This report is the first of those two items for your selection, and it is meant to sit beside the second.

If you have received a letter from the Service saying that no government orders were in effect during the quarter you claimed, this report answers that sentence with the public record, order by order. Read the quarter you claimed. For each instrument, the report gives you the issuer, the number, the dates, the words that commanded the change, the penalty behind them and the exhibit. Those are facts about the public record, and anyone can check them against the register, the code or the docket the report cites. The Service is free to argue about how much a given order affected your business. Whether the orders existed is not a matter of opinion.

Three points of public law matter to anyone holding such a letter. First, a notice that turns down a refund claim starts a clock. Under section 6532(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code, a refund suit cannot be brought "after the expiration of 2 years from the date of mailing by certified mail or registered mail by the Secretary to the taxpayer of a notice of the disallowance of the part of the claim to which the suit or proceeding relates." Second, asking the IRS Independent Office of Appeals to review the letter does not stop that clock; the Service's own page on the letter says so ("Requesting an appeal doesn't extend this time"), and section 6532(a)(4) provides that the Service's later consideration of the claim does not extend the period. Third, the period can be extended only by a written agreement between you and the Service under section 6532(a)(2), made on Form 907, Agreement to Extend the Time to Bring Suit, and effective only if the Service signs it before the two years run out.

The COVID Project does not give legal advice, and this report is not a substitute for it. Take it to your accountant, your enrolled agent or your lawyer. The dates above are public law, and the decisions they call for are yours and your adviser's to make.
