Wicker, Collins Offer Bill To Extend Air Carrier PSP
Sens. Wicker and Collins jointly introduced a bill to extend the air carrier payroll support program by six months.

As the expiration of the Payroll Support Program (PSP) for air carriers at the end of this month creeps ever closer, two key U.S. Senate leaders have moved to continue the program at least through March 2021. Senate Commerce Committee chairman Roger Wicker (R-Mississippi) and Appropriations Committee chairman Susan Collins (R-Maine) on Monday jointly introduced the Air Carrier Worker Support Extension Act of 2020 to extend the program for the next six months with $28 billion in funding that encompasses both new appropriations and unspent CARES Act money.
