CARES Act – Signed into Law
On Friday, March 27, President Donald Trump signed the “Coronavirus and Economic Security Act” (also known as the CARES Act) into law, after a voice-vote approval earlier that day by the U.S. House of Representatives and an unanimous vote by the U.S. Senate on Wednesday of last week. The CARES Act, estimated at $2.2T is the largest economic stimulus ever approved in the history of our country. The stimulus bill delivers extraordinary spending to confront the country’s disruption due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including cash payments to individual citizens, enhancements and expansions to unemployment benefits, a broad lending program for small businesses and targeted relief for hard-hit industries.
