    I am a Driver Helper at LSG Sky Chefs. I am not making even 40 hours anymore and I am not eligible for unemployment. It is not fair for me to be working but still not enough to get anything. It's not enough to pay bills it's not enough to do anything neither. we have to pay insurance and phone bills and electric bills and how can we pay with 200 something dollars! I also need protection at work we don't have safety things to go in the field with. Me and my family are high risk!

    I work at the renaissance hotel in dt phx and l am currently laid off
    I applied for ui immediately after being laid off but it took 6 weeks to finally get benefits
    I know that my employer and the state are considering re-opening more operations.
    l am concerned about Returning to work without adequate protection and getting/spreading the virus.

    I hope you can help us find relief. And I hope you do consider a policy to protect and help hospitality workers during this time.
