Industrial Watch: April 25, 2020

“President Trump has committed to signing the $484 billion coronavirus relief package after the House gave approval on Thursday. Known as the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and Health Care Enhancement Act, this package comes after the previous PPP exhausted its initial $349 billion in funding last week. The emergency aid aims to provide relief for small businesses and hospitals, as well as expand medical testing. This is the fourth coronavirus bill to pass through Congress in the last seven weeks. This has been the largest emergency relief fund in modern U.S. history at a stunning total of $2.8 trillion. A fifth coronavirus-response package is said to already be in the works.” -Adam Abushagur
