Small Business help, December 2020

(COVID) AIDE FOR COLORADANS: Gov. Jared Polis announcement in early December that he was calling back the legislators to distribute funds to temporarily help people, while they await the federal government aid, has paid off. He said that the General Assembly of Colorado has passed with a bipartisan vote (and comradery) to give Coloradans much needed boost to child care helpers/programs, increase access to critical funds for food pantries, helping with rental assistance, expanding Broadband for school remote learning access, and creating a life-line for small businesses and restaurants (both in running their restaurants and in tax relief). It was added during the session that restaurants/small businesses must comply with the health regulations in order to qualify for the aid; because some felt that if you are open (illegally), then you don’t need financial help. Unemployed will get a $375 deposit into their account. Per Gov. Polis, We can see the light at the end of the tunnel, please wear your mask. We cant let up, protect and support one another. Our great state got this done under unprecedented circumstances… Now we await Congress in Washington, D.C. to help its constituents in these dire times. (LYONS, CO December 10, 2020)

NOTE: If we get details on the Colorado assistance for small businesses, we will publish it on this page, as it become available.
