ACTION ALERT: CARES Act Emergency Legislation Needs Support

From the Agitator

“Drop everything and get your CEO, board members and top leaders on the phone first thing MONDAY morning.  Here’s why.

Congress is right now at work on the “Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act”. Short-titled the CARES ACT, this emergency financial legislation was drafted by the Republicans in the U.S. Senate and is now being circulated to the Democrats in both the House and the Senate for input and for fast approval.

This is LIFESAVING legislation for nonprofits and many for-profit companies that are a key part of the supply chain for the nonprofit sector.”

Read the entire post here.  Roger Craver and Kevin Schulman also include links to find your representatives, and they suggest contacting them IMMEDIATELY: 

“You can find the names and contact information for your Senators here.

And the name and contact information for your U.S. Representative here.

Don't delay. Time is very, very short. Get your CEO, Board Members and other stakeholders on the phone today. – Roger & Kevin”

This is not a loan.  It’s a grant to help non-profits pay staffers through June 30. 

Please act today---this legislation is being crafted NOW.
