Rubio Statement on Biden Administration Changes to Paycheck Protection Program
Miami, FL — U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) released a statement following reports the Biden Administration will make numerous changes to the Paycheck Protection Program.
“The Paycheck Protection Program provided a critical lifeline to small businesses and their employees over the last 11 months,” Rubio said. “No other federal relief program has done more to help our smallest businesses, especially those in underserved and under-banked communities. I urge the Biden Administration to work with Republicans and Democrats in Congress as it considers changes to this incredibly successful and overwhelmingly bipartisan program.”
Last year, as Chairman of the U.S. Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship, Rubio co-authored the historic Paycheck Protection Program and led the authorization of nearly $1 trillion in small business relief, including over $800 billion for PPP during the coronavirus pandemic. The first round of assistance aided 5.2 million small businesses and saved up to 51 million jobs. Former CBO Director Doug Holtz-Eakin called PPP “the single most effective fiscal policy ever undertaken by the United States Government.”
In a 2,900-word Medium piece, Rubio explains how the “Paycheck Protection Program was one of the most significant financial supports for minority-owned businesses ever created.”
