Calling for COVID-19 Relief from Congress

COVID-19 Airline Relief Starts with Workers

March 16, 2020 — AFA is working around the clock to fight for our health and safety and our jobs. Listen to this message:

AFA is on Capitol Hill interfacing with lawmakers to advocate for financial relief for individual workers and airlines in a way that promotes direct support of continued paychecks, healthcare, and financial viability of the airlines. We are pushing for any relief to include restrictions on stock buy backs, dividends, executive bonuses, using funds in any way to undermine worker rights – in addition to other key provisions for long-term protections for workers, our families, our contracts, and our jobs. We will keep Flight Attendants informed as we push forward and advise you on what you can do to help push lawmakers and the White House to enact these protections.

We're all in this together. Stay informed at afacwa.org/coronavirus.
