Crisis Pay for Frontline Healthcare Workers

Crisis Pay for Frontline Healthcare Workers
Why this petition matters
Covid-19 has caused a National Emergency in the United States. Businesses have closed down to allow social distancing. There is a certain subset of individuals that will never be allowed to practice social distancing.
Frontline Healthcare workers are taking care of patients with Covid-19 across America daily.
Some hospitals don’t have the proper PPE but they are still there.
There is a chance that they could be critically ill but they are still there.
The public fears them because they think they are carriers of the disease but they are still there.
They are dealing with irate and fearful family members that don’t understand why they can’t visit their loved one.
They risk bringing the illness home to their spouse, children, grandparents, etc but yet they are still there.
Let’s show appreciation those that are helping to fight this virus directly. Helping to get your family member back home. Helping the public to understand exactly what’s going on.
We are asking that hospitals across the country initiate crisis pay for frontline healthcare workers. Please stand with us!
