About that $300M in COVID-19 relief

This just in from Alaska Congressman Don Young:

Alaska's fishing industry is a critical economic driver for our state. Unsurprisingly, the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted fisheries across our country. I sent a bipartisan letter with over 35 House colleagues to the U.S. Department of Commerce, urging immediate distribution of the assistance secured by Congress in the CARES Act to fishery participants, including tribal, subsistence, commercial, and charter fishery participants. Fishing communities are facing extreme hardship, and I will continue doing all I can to support them and the fishermen who depend on these good jobs. Click here to read our full letter.

  1. Don Young is one of 39 people on the letter. He isn't even one of the 4 who actually signed the letter. Jeez thanks for all the effort of agreeing to add your name to a letter! worthless POS.

  2. $300 million for 1.7 million jobs is $176 each. The answer to this mess is not in a measly handout of our money from our government. Get back to work!
