Subject: Airport Workers are Fighting for Health Care and Job Security. I support
them, please support them too.

As a pastor of a United Methodist Church in Tukwila I am aware of the precarious life
situations our low-income workers face. Many of them live paycheck to paycheck to
support their families. They are hard workers and depend on the stability of job and
health insurance.

The coronavirus is hitting hospitality workers hard. Countless workers at the airport
have been laid off or have lost hours because of decreased travel. While national
food service corporations will rebound, this could be a catastrophic event for many
families losing their livelihoods and their health insurance coverage. During this time
of crisis, they need to know that their healthcare will continue to be there for them if
there is no work available.

As you are considering giving airport companies a rent reduction to help them during
the coronavirus outbreak, I urge you to make sure that any rent relief for national food
service corporations like HMS Host and SSP America also goes along with a "bailout"
for airport workers.

Sincerely,
Rev. Jan Bolerjack
Riverton Park United Methodist Church
