Dear John:
The Senate is debating an emergency bailout for big corporations right now.
They’ve heard from the airlines and big corporations.
Now they need to hear from US.

Alternatively, you can call (808) 201-0028 directly to be connected.
We need to let Congress know that thousands of hospitality workers—not just billionaire companies—need cash in their pockets RIGHT NOW.
No bailout for airlines and other big corporations that leaves workers behind. We are calling Congress to tell them we do NOT support any bailout package for the rich that does not:
- Keep unemployment insurance in place
- Extend workers’ health insurance coverage
- Require companies to pay emergency sick-pay to workers affected by the virus
- Guarantee family and medical leave
- Maintain funding for nutrition programs like food stamps and WIC
- Provide emergency rent and mortgage relief for workers who have been laid-off
Tell your Congresspeople: Put workers First!
In solidarity,
UNITE HERE Hospitality Workers Union
P.S. I know we’ve been emailing you a lot this week. But we are all facing an unprecedented crisis, and Congress is deciding right NOW on the kind of relief package that will determine how we all recover as a nation. The more of us that speak up together, the more we can steer the decision making in D.C. to prioritize the needs of the workers most impacted by COVID-19.
