House to Extend Small-Business Loan Aid, Restore Government Spy Powers in Historic Proxy Votes
May 26, 2020 31 secs

The first vote is expected Wednesday and will reinstate the government's spy authorities—with modifications—under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) that Congress allowed to expire in March amid bicameral and bipartisan disagreements.

The Senate overwhelmingly—80 to 16—passed a FISA reform bill in mid-May with an added amendment, kicking it back to the House for final approval.

The adjustment to PPP would extend the June 30 deadline by which a small business must use the federal loan they received to hire back their employees, among other things, by 24 weeks.

On May 15, the House approved a $3 trillion stimulus bill, that proposal is assumed to be dead.
