In light of the pandemic, Congress acted swiftly to make certain small employers could use the existing SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) program to access much needed financial assistance and created the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) at SBA, which has been implemented with the assistance of the Department of Treasury. The hearing gives Members the ability to hear from administration officials about the interpretation, implementation, and effectiveness of the programs in providing economic assistance to employers throughout the ongoing pandemic.
