"For the avoidance of doubt, and as you have been previously notified, Hobby Lobby is not a 'critical business,'" the letter from attorney general Phil Weiser's office, obtained by ABC News, stated. "You are directed to immediately close all Hobby Lobby locations within the State of Colorado."

"Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost sent a cease and desist letter to the general counsel of Hobby Lobby Wednesday after hearing that stores in the state were re-opening. Yost tweeted that Hobby Lobby properly closed when Ohio Health Department Director Dr. Amy Acton issued the stay-at-home order, but re-opened even though the order hadn't changed."

I think it's a question of social and political signaling and greed, not confession (sorry, that's a sort of technical term, but I don't think "religion" is appropriate). Hopefully Buckworks knows what I mean there.
