Addressing the economic crisis and solving the public health emergency go hand in hand. That’s why Annie Kuster introduced her “Roadmap to Recovery,” outlining how we build back from this pandemic.
Plan highlights:
A comprehensive national testing strategy
Supporting for frontline heroes - legislation to provide $25,000 in student loan debt forgiveness or education credits for essential workers and their families
Creating mechanisms for those who must continue to self-isolate
The expanded use of the Defense Production Act for the production of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and medical supplies
Rapid vaccine development
Expansion of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP)
Continued support for unemployed and financially struggling individuals
Additional support & funding for state and local governments
