watching this proud and determined JFK community confront an
unprecedented challenge. On behalf of the Port Authority of NY & NJ, I
cannot thank you enough for the tireless work you have done to keep our
great airport running so that we can play our central and critical role in
helping the region cope with and eventually recover from the pandemic.
Please keep yourselves, your loved ones and your colleagues as safe as
possible. We will persevere." Charles Everett.
