H.R. 6888 — Community Development Financial Institutions in the Paycheck Protection Program (May 15, 2020)

Summary

H.R. 6888 is a bill introduced in the House of Representatives on May 15, 2020, by Ms. Adams and referred to the Committee on Small Business. It modifies requirements for community development financial institutions in the paycheck protection program by revising delegated authority provisions. It lets the Administrator and the Secretary of the Treasury jointly revoke a lender's authority to make loans after finding recent compliance shortcomings or other material operational shortcomings. It also directs that a non-bank CDFI need not go through reverification of an existing customer for purposes of the Bank Secrecy Act when the financial relationship is well documented.
