“I’m a 23 year old homeowner that now may lose my car and mortgage due to being put on unemployment because I’m a restaurant manager. We were told to file for unemployment the day before we had to then tell our 60+ person staff how to file and send them home with enough food to help cover the difference.”
Restaurant employee, Grants Pass
“Monday was the most heartbreaking day in my fifty year career as a chef and restaurateur when I had to lay off 150 people ― all hourly staff, all senior management and executive team ― and close our restaurants. They will need support and we will need support to survive this economically and be able to open again. Please help us.”
Restaurant operator,
Eugene
“We have had to lay off nearly 500 employees, close two restaurants, and go to extremely limited sales. Our revenues are down over 90%.”
Restaurant operator,
Medford
“Just in Oregon, our company had to lay off over 1,000 people. I was an event & sales manager and don’t have a job. Many of our restaurant workers have children and no savings.
Restaurant workers are a vulnerable population. We need help ASAP.”
