President Trump signs additional economic measures April 5th 5:32 pm due to the spread of new corona infection
In the United States, following the spread of the new coronavirus, additional economic measures amounting to 52 trillion yen in Japanese yen have been established.
Regarding the series of measures taken so far, criticism has been made that the funds are not sufficiently distributed to small and medium-sized enterprises and micro enterprises, and prompt response seems to be an issue.
Following a bill passed by the US Congress on additional economic measures, President Trump signed the bill on 24th and additional measures were passed.
The budget this time is $ 480 billion, or JPY 52 trillion in Japanese yen, and the major pillar is the expansion of financial support so that SMEs and micro enterprises can continue to pay employees' salaries.
After signing, President Trump said, "We will provide a crucial relief to small African and Hispanic American businesses and their employees," and will make every effort to maintain employment through this measure. I showed you the idea of giving.
Financial support for SMEs and micro enterprises was included in the 230 trillion yen-scale economic measure that was established last month, which is the largest ever. There are criticisms that it was also used to support companies.
As a result, the challenge is to be able to quickly reach out to smaller businesses across the United States through additional measures.
