Helping Our Small Businesses: The American Rescue Plan and Where We Go From Here
The American Rescue Plan (ARP) is, to my mind, one of the most significant pieces of legislation for working families in the modern history of this country. From $1.3 billion in direct aid to state and local governments; checks for individuals; and, critical investments in housing, health care, and education; this new law addresses the very real needs of Vermonters. Importantly, this law includes significant assistance for our small businesses.
