H. R. 7437, 116th Congress — To Extend the Authority for Commitments for the Paycheck Protection Program

Summary

House bill 7437 of the 116th Congress, 2D Session, is a bill to extend the authority for commitments for the paycheck protection program and separate amounts authorized for other loans under section 7(a) of the Small Business Act, and for other purposes. Craig introduced it on July 1, 2020 with Balderson, and it was referred to the Committee on Small Business. It amends section 1102(b) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act to provide that, during a period beginning on February 15, 2020, the amount authorized for commitments for PPP loans shall be $659,000,000,000. A separate paragraph covers commitments under section 7(a) other than the paycheck protection program.
