“I want to say one of the reasons I support this bill is because it includes significant relief for small businesses, which are the backbone of Colorado's economy. My Republican colleague and I, John Curtis, introduced a bill just a few weeks ago to provide EIDL relief, essentially ensuring that we would exclude the EIDL advance when determining forgiveness for PPP loans. We have heard from countless business owners in my district, in Fort Collins and Loveland, who are struggling and who have told us that this provision would provide needed relief to ensure that they can continue to keep their businesses solvent, keep their doors open, serving the people of our great State of Colorado and, of course, my colleague, the State of Utah, and small business owners across the country. That provision is in this bill. It is in the updated Heroes Act, alongside so many other important provisions to help small businesses in our country recover. I say to my colleagues: Let's get this done. Let's pass this bill. Let's provide the relief that the American people are counting on us to provide.”
