Second payroll stimulus for airlines
There is an ALPA Call to Action that needs your immediate attention and participation now. This could very likely save the many jobs on the line across the industry as a whole. The CARES Act extension is just as it sounds, an extension of the CARES Act that would cover September 30, 2020 to March 31, 2021. Join us in asking Congress to support a clean extension of the Payroll Support Program, not just to bolster our industry and save pilot jobs, but also to support our nation’s economic recovery.
Through the ALPA Government Affairs Committee and your participation in this Call to Action, the extension is possible and could protect all our jobs, hopefully until we see a full recovery of the airline industry. It is also important to note that this Call to Action is not limited to ALPA pilots, or even pilots in general. It is open to everyone – friends, family, the general public - and I highly recommend you share this Call to Action with those around you to support us in this effort. http://send.alpa.org/link.cfm?r=JJ2M...kz2K3lL87ZMw~~ |
Signed. Good Luck to us all.

"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship" - Alexander Fraser Tytler

it is funny how pilots are staunchly against any sort of aid or handout until it’s us in the bread line.
