If Congress and the Administration can agree on another COVID-19 relief measure, we are optimistic the 501(c)(6) community will gain access to the PPP. But there is no guarantee. We must keep up the pressure to ensure this issue remains top-of-mind for negotiators. The more signatories this letter collects, the bigger impact we can collectively make in Congress.

Join JNCL-NCLIS in supporting relief for nonprofit associations by adding your organization's name to ASAE's community sign-on letter.
