Mandate that CEO's and Board Members must take an 80% reduction in pay for the next 5 to 10 years. No corporate bonuses or stock buybacks. 80% of current stock held in the company will be sold at current market values. Front line workers receive a permanent 40% increase in pay
Any airline relief program signed into law must consider frontline aviation employees and their families first. We need a package that supports workers, not one that supports corporate profits.https://twitter.com/WeAreALPA/status/1241488472457740289 …

Exactly. The airlines could have used their tax reductions to save for a rainy day, but instead gave huge bonuses to execs & stock buybacks. Now they need to pay the Piper. No exec bonuses, issue stocks for $, & pay living wages. Stop contract services at bottom wrung.

No money should go to the airlines. Only to impacted employees. They got their money 2 years ago.

The airlines have assets and can get loans. The workers of America that have been forced into isolation and lost their jobs do not. Keep standing up for the people of this nation not the corporations. Please continue to represent those people hit hardest economically. We vote!

Since we know from the tax cut that "trickle-down" doesn't work, maybe Congress should give relief to workers who will SPEND MONEY and let the benefit trickle UP.

How about forcing airlines that shed their employee pensions back in the G.W.Bush era to use some of this "GIFT" to restore pensions so retirees can finally get the retirements they PAID FOR? CEOs took BONUSES for stealing workers savings. Fix that, eliminate stock buy backs.

The airlines got their huge tax break and bought stock. Cruise companies are registered in other countries so they won’t have to pay taxes. No corporate welfare. No Mnuchin 500 billion slush funds.
