Friends, 

I need your help in continuing to make our community a growing hub for small businesses. 

Small businesses are critical in fueling our economy, especially here in the Miami Valley. To help keep these businesses and the families that run them afloat during the COVID-19 pandemic, I supported the Paycheck Protection Program in 2020. This program provided $820 million in loans for 7,300 small businesses across the Miami Valley, ensuring continuous paychecks for thousands of Ohioans.

In my support of small businesses, I have also: 

•  Cosponsored the RESTART Act, helping small businesses recover from COVID
• Wrote and introduced the Employer and Employee COVID Protection Act
• Extended the PPP through May 2021 and provided loan forgiveness for those who qualify.

With your support I will continue to stand up for our small businesses and their employees as we strengthen the economic outlook of the Miami Valley and its residents. 

Thank you, 

Congressman Michael R. Turner
