Urge Congress to include 501(c)(6) organizations in the Paycheck Protection Program in the next supplemental package to address COVID-19.
Proposed COVID-19 response packages in the House of Representatives and the Senate would expand eligibility to the PPP. However, the recent amended proposal in the Senate would only expand eligibility for 501(c)(6) organizations with less than 150 employees, leaving out many organizations, including professional associations, that are providing crucial services, such as job boards and continuing education, to members at this critical time in the job market.
