13 Million Businesses Are Facing This...

Apr 21, 2020

Minutes ago, the U.S. Senate reached an agreement on a bill to help small businesses. Now this bill goes back to the U.S. House which has blocked aid to these businesses for about two weeks.

In March, bankruptcies increased by 12% month-over-month. Meanwhile Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi congratulated legislators who voted against helping small business owners by increasing funds to the Paycheck Protection Plan. She then headed to her own kitchen to showcase her specialty ice cream cravings. Right now, the hopes and dreams of nearly 13 million American business owners and their employees are in real danger of being destroyed by Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.

It’s time to tell these D.C. radicals that grassroots Americans value small businesses more than political posturing and Pelosi’s pet projects. Our legislators urgently need to get their priorities straight. Help by sending a fax to demand that the small business owners who were hurt by the government’s lockdown be reimbursed for their expenses. The Senate could vote on the bill as early as today and the House tomorrow or Thursday. Act now to send your fax. - Mat

The lives and families of millions are being hurt by the delays from Democrats. People like gym owners, who wanted to help clients improve their health, or restaurant owners, who wanted to share in a lifetime of special memories with their customers, or a single mother, who just finished night classes and started a salon to pull her family out of poverty.

These people are not just permanently losing their dreams, they are also being pushed into bankruptcy, which will destroy their credit for up to 10 years. That’s 10 years that they will not be able to buy their own home or get a business loan if they want to try a start-up again to create jobs for others. This is taking the most independent and hardest-working among our nation and smearing the next 10 years of their future.

Right now, Republicans in the Senate are fighting today to hold a vote on providing 310 billion dollars to rescue business owners struggling under the weight of crushing lockdowns. This money must be used to keep employees on staff and will reduce the money paid out through unemployment and welfare distribution.

It’s time to rise up and demand that the Democrat leadership stop the obstruction and vote to help small businesses. Send your fax today to demand action. It’s time to get this bill on the President’s desk.

Liberty Counsel Action has been on the front lines in D.C. and we are working to ensure that these funds will go directly to the small business owners who need it most. We are working with staff inside and outside the D.C. Beltway to get information to hold banks accountable to the intent of this law.

I have told my staff the passing of this bill is of the highest priority. Our team is working on weekends to get this done. Now we need you to help push this bill over the finish line to the President’s desk.

We must help small businesses. Many are gasping their last breath. Time is of the essence.

I appreciate your efforts to keep us being your voice on Capitol Hill. We appreciate your prayers. We are honored to fight for the survival of these small businesses and the way they serve so many of us across America.

Gratefully,

Mat Staver, Chairman
Liberty Counsel Action


P.S. Our government needs to reimburse businesses for the damages that it cost to these small business owners. Make your voice heard to educate and motivate legislators to stop taking American businesses hostage. We need to act NOW to stop our legislators and governors from further damaging our economy. Send a fax to our legislators right now.

Please rush a donation to strengthen our team's ability to fight this in D.C. Any amount helps. God bless you.
