Colleagues, Provided below are notes from April 9th OSD A&S COVID conference call with Associations and the Chamber:
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Chamber of Commerce today applauded the leadership of the Federal Reserve Board and U.S. Treasury Department as they created a much-needed Main Street Lending Facility as well as other important programs to support businesses of all sizes and provide access to the financing they need to maintain operations during the ongoing period of economic certainty amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
Amid the coronavirus pandemic and the resulting stay-at-home orders and national economic downturn, our nation’s gig economy companies have become a fundamentally essential part of many Americans’ daily lives – and an economic lifeline for many others. Not only are companies like Instacart, Postmates, and Uber delivering food and groceries to those in isolation, they’re also stepping up to donate meals and rides to workers on the frontlines and granting funds to those in need.
