This bill isn't perfect & we need more under President Biden. But, I'm proud to have secured set-asides for underserved small businesses, so PPP doesn't only favor well-connected. And small businesses need grants, so we are allocating more to fund grants. We will keep fighting.

Weak leadership. We are very disappointed with the Dems approach. This is a win for the Republicans with the senate races but an overall loss for the American people

Could’ve been more, but I def agree with the $300/wk vs $600 for unemployment, or at least get them close to 100% of their pay without going over. I never understood how ppl were making more on unemployment than if they’d stayed working.
