The Small Business Administration (SBA) has announced they have reached their limit on the $350 billion dollar loan to grant Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and is no longer accepting applications.
The SBA reported this morning that more than 1,637,000 loan applications valued at “over $339 billion” had been approved. It is not expected to disclose who the recipients of the taxpayer funds will be.
BizFed's Executive Committee met yesterday to take a position on adding 501c6 organizations (trade associations and chambers of commerce) to the PPP program AND asked Congress to increase funding immediately.
