| https://budd.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=989 | Rep. Ted Budd Leads Push to Help Small Businesses | 2020-12-10 | 2020 | 2020-12 | Republican | House | NC | Ted Budd | B001305 | budd.house.gov | legacy | Washington, D.C. -- Rep. Ted Budd (NC-13) joined over 170 of his colleagues to send a letter to top House leaders, asking them to take practical steps to ease the financial burden on small businesses during the pandemic. The letter pushes House leaders to consider the Small Business Expense Protection Act, which Rep. Budd sponsored, that will allow recipients of PPP loans to deduct those expenses on their taxes. Rep. Budd said on the House floor this week: While many states and localities begin to make the same mistake of instituting massive shutdowns, small businesses have been left high and dry. Imagine pouring everything you have, emotionally and financially, into an idea. Then you watch it grow and thrive, but through no fault of your own, it gets ruined because your local government shuts you down and the federal government refuses to help. For the sake of our nation's job creators and our workers, it's time that we act to support our fellow citizens as we enter the final stages of our battle against this virus. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
