**ACTION REQUESTED**
This will take only a few moments, and will benefit our brothers and sisters being laid off due to the COVID-19 and its impacts.
Please contact our federal representatives (Senator Cantwell, Senator Murray, and your Congressional Representative) simply ask that they:
“Please designate COVID-19 for Disaster Unemployment Assistance.
This is a necessary step to allow for waiving the 680 hour requirement to receive unemployment benefits.”
That’s all you need to say.
Here are the links to their contact pages.
Congressman Derek Kilmer WA-06
Congresswoman Kim Schrier WA-08
Thank you.
