I’m writing to find out where the talk about the essential workers’ hazard pay went. I have worked through this whole pandemic and put my family at risk every time I walk into my home after work. There are people who don’t have jobs who got a stimulus check, and I feel the essential workers should receive somewhat of a “thank-you” payment. We bust our behinds daily to make sure the American public is taken care of through this whole mess and we get nothing in return, just the wages we earn every other day.
