Dear ______________,
I am writing on behalf of the RESTART ACT led by Senators Todd Young and Michael Bennett ( S.3814 ) and Representatives Michael Kelly and Jared Golden (H.R. 7481 ).
I strongly urge you to support these measures to ensure that business that have been hardest hit and without definite reopening guidelines can stay in business. These businesses are still required to pay rent, maintain insurance and pay for upkeep without any assurances they will reopen this year
I also urge you to support the SAVE OUR STAGES ACT led by Senators John Cornyn and Amy Klobuchar ( S.4258 ). These measures would establish grant funds for businesses that have had a virtual 100% shut down.
Both these measures listed above have bipartisan support and would go far in helping to stabilize those industries hardest hit by this crisis. By keeping these businesses afloat you would also insure that the benefits would trickle down to other ancillary businesses.
As we all battle this virus together we look to our elected officials to be leaders and to consider the well being of all Americans.
Thank you for your support, attention and action.
Respectfully
— ——————————————————————-
We ask our brothers and sisters of all unions for their support of these two Acts.
In Solidarity,
G. Anthony Phillips, President
