• Update on Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act:
• The bill has passed the House. The updated bill would extend the forgiveness period for PPP loans from eight to 24 weeks.
• It would also reduce payroll spending requirements from 75% of loan funds to 60% of loan funds, giving businesses more flexibility in deciding how to allocate the emergency funds, and extend a June 30 deadline to hire workers back.  
• The push for the bipartisan legislation came after widespread complaints that the PPP’s original terms were too restrictive for struggling small businesses.
• The Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act was introduced by Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) and Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.). 
• It passed in the House on Thursday with a vote of 471-1; only Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) voted no. The Senate adjourned before Memorial Day without passing a different piece of legislation that would have expanded the PPP’s terms. 
• This bill is now headed to the Senate, where it is expected to pass.
