Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021
The pandemic relief package (Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021) gives a break to the hardest-hit small businesses by reopening the Paycheck Protection Program and offers them the ability to apply for a second loan. The new round of loans will be limited to those with fewer than 300 employees that have experienced drops of at least 25% in revenue during any quarter of 2020 compared with the same quarter in 2019.
