WASHINGTON – Over the past few months, American families and businesses have stood strong through an unprecedented economic dislocation as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. The Trump Administration and Congress have worked at a breakneck pace to stand up programs to support hardworking Americans across our nation. Specifically, the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), which has rushed billions of dollars out the door through financial institutions of all sizes to our small businesses.
As we work to reopen our economy, it’s clear: PPP loans are playing a critical role in our nation’s economic recovery.
PPP success by the numbers:
- 5,458 lenders have approved 4,531,883 PPP loans totaling $511,382,171,979.
