This is goalpost moving. Of course laws exist by the consent of the governed. Your original post claimed that there was no law, and that businesses should consider litigating to the Supreme Court, relying on pro bono lawyers who "remember their Constitution", despite the complete lack of Constitutional support for your argument.

No law for house arrest. The "consent of the governed" comment was about state emergency powers.

There's no specific argument to litigate until a specific business opens and gets into a legal dispute with a specific state.
