Take Action for PPP Fairness

We, the undersigned, respectfully ask Congress to ensure fair treatment for business owners affected by Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) enforcement actions.

During the unprecedented crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic, the federal government created the PPP to help businesses survive. Millions of business owners applied in good faith, followed the guidelines as they understood them, and used the funds to do exactly what the program intended — protect jobs and save businesses.

Now, years later, many of these same business owners face investigations — even though many PPP regulations were drafted rapidly and have been widely acknowledged as ambiguous.

We respectfully ask for:

• Fair and proportionate treatment for all PPP borrowers
• Recognition that regulatory ambiguity should be considered when evaluating good-faith borrowers
• Congressional review of PPP enforcement practices and their impact on businesses
• Consideration of legislative reforms to protect good-faith borrowers from disproportionate outcomes

Business owners who applied in good faith during a national crisis deserve a fair process that respects due process and equal protection under the law.
