S. 3767, Strengthening Local Coronavirus Response Act

Summary

S. 3767 was introduced in the Senate on May 19, 2020, by Daines and referred to the Committee on Finance. It may be cited as the Strengthening Local Coronavirus Response Act and is meant to require States to pass through 45 percent of the amounts paid from the Coronavirus Relief Fund to local governments that did not receive a direct payment from the Fund. Section 2 amends subsection (b) of section 601 of the Social Security Act, as added by section 5001(a) of that Act, to add a pass-through requirement. Each State is to distribute the amount on a pass-through basis, without requiring any application, to each unit of local government that is not a large unit of local government that received a direct payment.
