H.R. 7792, Abortion Providers Loan Elimination Act
Summary
H.R. 7792, the Abortion Providers Loan Elimination Act, was introduced in the House of Representatives on July 27, 2020 by Mr. Marshall and referred to the Committee on Small Business. It would amend the Small Business Act so that no individual or entity that provides abortions is eligible for a covered loan under the paycheck protection program, with exceptions for a hospital and for an entity that exclusively provides abortions described in section 507(a) of the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020. The findings assert that Planned Parenthood Federation of America improperly applied for, and received, $80,000,000 in loans. It also calls for an Inspector General report on covered loans made to that organization.
