Njengoba abenzi bomthetho becubungula imithetho eyengeziwe yokubhekana nenkinga yezempilo eqhubekayo kanye nokuwohloka komnotho okuvela Covid-19, lo Inhlangano yase-American Hotel & Lodging (AHLA) ithumele incwadi kuCongress icela usizo olwengeziwe ezindaweni ezimbalwa, okuhlanganisa ukwelula i-Paycheck Protection Programme (PPP) yamabhizinisi athinteke kakhulu kanye nabasebenzi bawo, ukudala izikhungo ezihlosiwe zokuboleka kanye nezindlela zokuthola imali yokusiza abanikazi bamahhotela ukuthi bahlangabezane nenkonzo yezikweletu, kanye nokudlulisa izinguquko zentela ukuze bazuze. kokubili abasebenzi basehhotela nabaqashi. Ndawonye, lezi zinhlinzeko zizosiza ukuqinisekisa ukuthi amahhotela angakwazi ukugcina futhi aqashe kabusha abasebenzi, avikele abasebenzi nezivakashi, agcine iminyango yamahhotela evulekile, futhi akhuthaze abantu baseMelika ukuthi baphinde bahambe uma kuphephile.

Imboni yamahhotela ibe nomthelela ngokomlando enhlekeleleni yezempilo ye-COVID-19. Ngokusho kwe-Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), umkhakha wezokungcebeleka nowokwamukela izihambi ulahlekelwe yimisebenzi eyizigidi ezingu-4.8 kusukela ngoFebhuwari—imisebenzi eminingi kunokwakha, ukukhiqiza, ukudayisa, imfundo nezempilo kuhlangene. Inani labantu kubasebenzi bamahhotela kanye nabasebenzi basehhotela liyalimaza, njengoba amahhotela asasebenza ngaphansi kwesigamu samazinga awo angaphambi kobhubhane. Umthelela wezomnotho mubi kakhulu imboni eyake yabhekana nayo.

“Imboni yethu ibiphakathi kweyokuqala ukuthintwa yilolu bhubhane futhi kuzoba ngeyokugcina ukululama. Singumgqugquzeli omkhulu wezomnotho, sisekela izigidi zemisebenzi futhi singenisa izigidigidi zemali yentela. Ukubuyisela umnotho wethu esimeni esihle kuqala ngokusekela imboni yamahhotela nezokuvakasha jikelele,” kusho uChip Rogers, umongameli kanye ne-CEO ye-American Hotel & Lodging Association. "Sidinga iCongress ukuthi iqhubeke nokubeka phambili izimboni nabasebenzi abathinteke kakhulu kule nkinga, ukuze usizo luqondiswe emabhizinisini aludinga kakhulu."

I-AHLA inxusa uKhongolose ukuthi unikeze usizo ngokushesha kulezi zindawo:

Nikeza imali eyengeziwe yemali kumabhizinisi athinteke kakhulu ngokusebenzisa isandiso esihlosiwe soHlelo Lokuvikela I-Paycheck (PPP).
Dala amathuba okusiza embonini yamahhotela usebenzisa i-Federal Reserve kanye nesiphathimandla soMgcinimafa.
Sungula isikhwama sokusiza imakethe ye-Commercial Mortgage Backed Securities (CMBS), ngokugxila ngokukhethekile embonini yamahhotela, njengengxenye yezinketho zokuboleka ze-Federal Reserve.
Yenza izinguquko zesakhiwo ku-Main Street Lending Facility esungulwe ngaphansi koMthetho we-CARES ukuze uqinisekise ukuthi izinkampani zamahhotela ziyalufinyelela uhlelo.
Kufaka phakathi ulimi lwesibopho esilinganiselwe ukuze kuhlinzekwe itheku eliphephile elilinganiselwe kusuka esibophweni sokuchayeka samahhotela avula kabusha futhi alandele isiqondiso sezempilo somphakathi esifanele.
Faka izinhlinzeko zentela ezihlosiwe ezizohlomulisa amabhizinisi alimele kakhulu kanye nabasebenzi bawo, okuhlanganisa nezikweletu zentela zezindleko ezinkulu noma izindleko zokuhlangabezana nezidingo zemboni. Ukuhlala Okuphephile isinyathelo; Isikweletu Sokugcinwa Kwabasebenzi esithuthukisiwe (ERC); ikhredithi yentela yokuhamba yesikhashana; ukukhulula intela emalini engenayo ye-phantom ekuthethelelelweni kokuguqulwa noma kokukhansela; kanye nokuvumela ukudonswa kwemali okuphelele kwezindleko zebhizinisi lokudla nezokuzijabulisa.

Kamuva Ucwaningo eyenziwe yi-Morning Consult egunyazwe i-AHLA ithole ukuthi abantu baseMelika bayeseka kakhulu imizamo yeCongress yokusiza imboni yezokuvakasha ukuthi ilulame:

Amaphesenti angama-70 abantu baseMelika asekela ukwedlula ezinye izikhuthazo zomnotho ezimbonini ezithintwe kabi kakhulu yilolu bhubhane, okubandakanya imikhakha yezokuvakasha neyokwamukela izihambi.
Cishe ngesilinganiso esingu-3 kuya ku-1, abantu baseMelika basekela ikhredithi yentela yokuvakasha yenhlangano entsha, yesikhashana ukuze bakhuthaze abantu ukuthi bahambe (ukusekelwa okungu-61%, ukuphikisa okungu-21%).
Ngokwesilinganiso esingaphezu kuka-2 kuya ku-1, abantu baseMelika basekela ukubuyisela ukuncishiswa kwezindleko zokuzijabulisa kwebhizinisi ukuze kukhuthazwe ukuhamba kwebhizinisi (ukusekelwa okungu-57%, ukuphikisa okungu-21%).
Cishe izingxenye ezimbili kwezintathu zabantu baseMelika zisekela imizamo kahulumeni wobumbano yokufuna amabhange ukuthi anikeze usizo lwezikweletu noma abekezelele emalini ebolekiwe yamahhotela (ukusekelwa ngama-63%, u-16% uyaphikisana)

“Ngokuba khona kuzo zonke izifunda zikakhongolose eMelika, amahhotela abalulekile ekubuyiseleni umnotho wethu esimweni nokweseka izigidi zemisebenzi. Abantu baseMelika bayeseka kakhulu imizamo yeCongress yokunikeza imboni yamahhotela ukwesekwa okwengeziwe ukuze sikwazi ukugcina iminyango yethu ivulekile futhi sibuyise abasebenzi bethu,” kuphetha uRogers.
