Thousands Of Airline Workers Furloughed As Government Aid Expires

The video discusses the impact of the expiration of a government aid program on airline jobs. In March, Congress approved $25 billion to support airline payrolls, preventing job cuts until the end of September. With the aid expired, American Airlines and United Airlines have begun furloughing thousands of employees. Lawmakers have not agreed on a new COVID-19 relief bill, but airlines suggest jobs could be restored with additional government support.
