U.S. Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) hosted a phone conversation with the executive directors of Nevada's Chambers of Commerce to discuss Nevada businesses' ongoing needs in response to the coronavirus pandemic. During the call, the Senator discussed her work in the Senate to advocate for the passage of additional COVID-19 relief legislation that includes funding for small businesses and local governments to help support local economies in their efforts to safely re-open.
"Nevada's businesses are working incredibly hard to protect the health of their employees and customers, serve their communities and safely re-open our economy. I want to ensure that they have every possible resource, from SBA loans to personal protective equipment, to help them weather this pandemic. After hearing from Nevada's local leaders, it is abundantly clear that Congress must pass additional coronavirus relief legislation that will help boost Nevada's economy and ensure our businesses rebound stronger than ever."
