WASHINGTON – Today, during the Senate Republican leadership press conference, U.S. Senator Todd Young (R-Ind.) discussed several key provisions in the proposed coronavirus relief package released yesterday by Senate Republicans, known as the Health, Economic Assistance, Liability Protection, and Schools (HEALS) Act. The proposal includes some principles from Senator Young’s RESTART Act, and his legislation to address unemployment insurance reform, child care, and telehealth. “We still have work to do and I know that Republicans here in the United States Senate are committed to continuing to optimize eligibility requirements and the loan criteria associated with the provisions to help our hardest-hit businesses, that’s certainly my function. We need to make sure that any gaps that exist, and I do believe that some exist, need to be filled so that our hardest-hit businesses will receive the assistance they need and so that employers and employees alike, who, through no fault of their own, find themselves in dire financial circumstances can ultimately find their way through this difficult time,” said Senator Young.
