Urge Your Rep and Senators to Pass Emergency COVID Relief Legislation

A Message From The U.S. Travel Association

Dear Travel Advocate,

The U.S. House of Representatives is coming back to Washington this weekend to consider emergency legislation pertaining to the USPS. Reports suggest that congressional leadership also sees this as an opportunity to advance an additional coronavirus recovery bill, which means we have an opportunity to secure relief.

We are urgently requesting travel advocates to ask their representative and senators to immediately extend and expand the Paycheck Protection Program, and consider other policy proposals meaningful to the entire travel industry, in any moving legislative vehicle. Please take two minutes to help make our voice heard.

We made great strides in the early rounds of negotiations on our policy priorities, but Congress and the White House have so far failed to advance a package that provides our industry relief, protection and stimulus, which will continue to harm travel businesses and its workforce and has severely slowed recovery efforts. We need Congress to advance legislation and we must do all we can to urge them to act now.

Thank you for your help and engagement.
