Keep the Pressure on to Save CWA Jobs in the Airline Industry

CWA members like Devin Sartin, a member of Local 3641 in Atlanta, Ga., are urging their Senators to extend the PSP program. Watch the video here.

The airline industry has been hit hard by the COVID-19 crisis, but the Payroll Support Program has helped keep workers on the job and helped maintain service around the country. The program is set to expire at the end of September, which will mean massive layoffs and cancelled flights, especially to small and medium sized cities.

While a proposal to extend the program has bipartisan support in Congress, the Senate has not taken action and time is running out. Contact your Senators today and tell them to make extending the Payroll Support Program through March 2021 is a national priority. Click here to send your message.
