on
federal
agency
response
in
this
crazy
time
of
kovat
19.
This
is
the
third
in
a
series
of
meetings
that
we
are
hosting

justice
responses
to
Kovach
19
and

a
different
portion
of
the
system.
A
I'm

So,
let's
get
to
it
today,
you
will
hear
about
state
agency
priorities
in
response
resulting
from
Kovach
19
in
the
areas
of
homeland
security
and
small
business
administration.
Our
first
speaker
will
be
deputy
director
Matthew
Travis
DDR
Travis
serves
as
the
first
deputy
director
for
the
Department
of
Homeland
Security's
cybersecurity
and
infrastructure
security
agency
or
sizzurp.
A
He
has
served
as
deputy
undersecretary
for
the
national
protection
and
programs
Directorate
before
the
agency
became
sizzurp
on
November
16th
2018
as
deputy
director
mister
director
Travis
supports
the
sizzurp
director
and
overseeing
the
cyber
security
division,
the
infrastructure
security
division,
the
National
Risk
Management
Center,
and
the
emergency
communications
division.
His
operational
support
responsibilities
are
to
ensure
a
holistic
approach
to
critical
infrastructure
protection
across
the
physical
and
cyber
risks
activities.
We
have
reserve
time
at
the
end
of
this
presentation
for
the
questions
as
deputy
director
Travis
will
need
to
drop
off
for
another
commitment.
B
Susan
and
good
afternoon,
everyone
good
to
be
with
you
I,
want
to
thank
the
conference
for
the
for
the
invitation
anytime,
I
get
a
chance
to
talk
to
and
CSL
members
generally,
it's
been
with
the
cybersecurity
task
force
that
we
jump
at,
and
you
all
are
one
of
our
premier
partners
and
I
welcome
the
opportunity
to
talk
during
these
these
challenging
times
on
on
behalf
of
my
boss,
director
Chris
Krebs,
as
well
as
acting
secretary
Chen.
Well.
B
I,
certainly
hope
that
all
of
you,
your
families
and
your
your
colleagues
and
state
legislators
across
the
country
are
healthy
and
safe.
They're
all
battling
through
this
together,
Susan
said
I'm
the
deputy
at
sisse
and
don't
feel
bad.
We
haven't
heard
of
us
I
think
we're
still
technically
the
the
the
newest
federal
government
agency
and
we
exist
really
to
protect
to
work
with
owners
and
operators
as
well
as
state
local,
tribal
and
territorial
officials
to
to
protect
those
16
sectors
of
America's
critical
infrastructure
both
from
physical
and
electronic
attack.
B
So
the
fact
that
makes
us
the
leading
civilian
cybersecurity
agency
in
the
United
States.
We
are
headquartered
here
in
in
Washington,
but
we
have
a
presence
throughout
the
country.
We
have
a
regional
structure,
not
unlike
FEMA
and
so
we've
got
both
cybersecurity
advisors
and
protective
security
advisors
and
risk
analysts
all
throughout
the
country,
working
with
your
constituents
and
working
with
your
colleagues
throughout
the
country,
and
so
generally
it
is
the
the
cyber
side
of
our
portfolio.
That
gets
a
lot
of
the
attention.
B
Technically
we
protected
against.
You
know,
tornadoes
and
earthquakes
as
well,
but
now
we
realize
have
to
protect
it
against
microbes
and
pandemics,
like
koban
19,
and
not
necessarily
because
the
infrastructure
itself
is
under
attack.
But
as
we've
seen
the
work
forces
and
without
the
work
force,
we
don't
have
an
infrastructure.
B
So
I'm
going
to
talk
through
a
few,
the
things
that
we've
done
and
we've
learned
throughout
this
pandemic
environment
for
the
past
couple
of
months-
and
they
haven't
been
talking
about
some
of
the
cyber
security
challenges
that
this
is
brought
about
and
what
we're
doing
about
as
well
and
certainly
believe
time
for
questions.
So
is
this
began
to
emerge
in
February
and
then
certainly
only
marks
and
by
mid
March
I.
Think
we
realize
were
in
for
something
new.
B
B
We
recognize
how
at
risk
many
of
those
national
critical
functions
had
become.
And
so
one
of
the
first
demand
signals
that
we
heard
from
our
industry
partners,
as
well
as
from
state
local
officials,
was
the
need
to
harmonize
how
we
are
prioritizing.
What
infrastructure
should
be
given
access
during
a
restricted
embargo.
So
when
we
have
stay-at-home
lawyers-
and
we
have
you
know
such
a
quarantine
environment
and
we're
shutting
down-
act,
economic
activity-
we
recognize
that
there's
some
academic
activity
that
we
have
to
maintain.
So
you
know
federalism
is
a
it's
a
tricky
thing.
B
It's
a
great
thing,
that's
a
tricky
thing
and
so
interstate
commerce.
You
know
as
we
as
we
realized
that
as
industry
needed
to
move
goods
and
services
across
state
lines
and
even
within
states
across
jurisdictions
that
there
was
a
need
for
us
to
be
on
the
same
sheet
music
in
terms
of
what
was
a
enough
priority
to
allow
those
workers
allow
those
those
trucks
and
cars
and
other
meats
of
modes
of
transportation
to
move
freely
throughout
our
restricted
jurisdiction.
B
So
we
worked
with
our
analysts
and
and
and
our
stakeholders
in
and
came
up
with,
really
was
our
first
co19
product,
which
was
the
essential,
critical
infrastructure,
workforce
guidance
and
really
what
this
was
was.
We
have
16
formal
sectors
of
credit
under
structure,
but
those
are
general
categories
and
what
we
realized
with
the
pandemic
force
us
to
do
is
really
take
stock
on
okay
throughout
those
16
sectors
of
infrastructure.
B
B
There
wasn't
any
type
of
Department
of
Labor
job
series,
classifications,
but
general
descriptions
of
the
types
of
workers
that
needed
to
be
given
access
in
a
restricted
part
that
need
to
be
granted
that
right-of-way
they
needed
to
be
allowed
to
continue
working
and
be
able
to
pass
through
checkpoints
and
not
be
pulled
over
by
law
enforcement
officials
for
breaking
quarantine.
We
found
that
to
be
helpful.
B
We
found
that
to
be
somewhat,
and
that
gives
a
contentious,
but
there
was
certainly
not
surprisingly,
a
lot
of
industry
partners
who
maybe
weren't
on
the
initial
list
that
were
engaging
there
all
of
their
networks
to
to
make
the
k2
us
on
why
they
were
essential.
Everyone
is
critical
and
increment
livery
structure,
but
not
nationally
everyone's
essentially.
B
B
This
line
of
effort
that
we
embarked
upon
the
other
thing
that
the
Komen
and
my
experience
has
taught
us,
is
that
it
really
has
led
them
led
the
way
of
a
new
digital
transformation.
We
are
certainly
working
with
all
of
our
public
and
private
sector
partners
to
ensure
that
infrastructure
means
operational,
but
we're
also
working
and
now
on
the
cyber
side
to
make
sure
that
they
are
able
to
work
in
a
distributed
distributed
posture
to
telework
environment.
B
You
know
the
technology
we're
using
right
here
for
this
meeting
is
the
is
the
technology
we're
going
to
rely
upon
for
the
future,
not
just
the
end
of
this
pandemic,
but
I
think
is,
as
we
move
on,
we'll
see
more
and
more
need
or
desire
to
to
operate
remotely,
and
so
that's
that's
a
great
convenience.
The
fact
that
ncsl
has
been
able
to
get
us
all
together
here
and
have
a
discussion
is
a
fantastic
thing,
but
there's
a
security
side
to
it
right
and
so
like
with
most
things.
Cyber.
B
There
are
great
benefits,
but
there
are
trade-offs
in
terms
of
risk
and
when
we
move
to
home
we're
kind
of
leaving
the
protections
of
that
corporate
in
security,
environment
or
a
government
security
environment
that
we
generally
operate
in
and
we're
moving
to
our
own
house,
where
we
may
not
have
the
same
protections
in
terms
of
our
own
in-house
networks.
Are
we
using
VPN
and
for
using
VPN?
Are
the
vulnerabilities.
D
B
That
VPN,
so
this
has
really
brought
about
a
whole
host
of
issues
that
we
need
to
make
sure
we
are
taking
into
account
as
our
workforce
as
your
staffs
that
state
capitals
and
your
constituents
in
new
states
are
working.
There
were
worth
worth
expanding
the
aperture
and
what
we
consider
to
be
good.
Cyber
hygiene
and
we've
already
seen
over
the
past
few
months,
another
type
of
malicious
cyber
activity
aimed
at
some
of
this
new
technology
and
some
of
this
rapidly
emerging
technology
that
deals
with
remote
access
and
this
telework
infrastructure.
B
It's
concerning
to
see
bad
actors
during
a
global
pandemic
take
advantage
of
some
of
this.
These
vulnerabilities,
but
that's
just
the
reality
of
the
world,
but
help
network
defenders,
we've
launched
a
dedicated
product
line
which
is
intended
to
advise
and
support
organizations
with
the
surge
in
telework
due
to
coronavirus,
and
these
new
products
include
a
joint
sisse
and
NSA
at
the
National
Security
Agency
telework
best
practices
guide,
in
addition
to
some
cyber
security
considerations
for
the
use
of
video
conferencing
software,
as
well
as
other
collaboration
tools.
B
So
that
was
timely,
that
we
released
that
what
we
did,
these
cyber
protections
that
we
all
must
you
know
implement
especial
relates
to
these
remote
tools
is
of
critical
importance
because
we
know,
as
we've
seen,
that
these
malicious
actives
are
going
to
take
advantage
of
our
new
posture,
we're
seeing
a
number
of
you
know
trying
true
techniques
to
gain
access
to
individual
email
accounts
to
to
get
access
to
network,
to
company
networks
to
steal
credentials.
And
you
know
a
lot
of
it
comes
from
Coby
19,
themed,
phishing
campaigns,
and
you
generally
see
this.
B
You
can
when
there's
a
hurricane
or
tornado
you'll
see
disaster
related
emails,
come
into
focus,
emails
account,
say,
hey.
You
know
here,
click
here
to
get
an
information
on
a
team,
a
grant
or
something
things
like
that,
and
unfortunately,
we
see
we're
seeing
a
lot
of
Kobe
19,
really
a
spear
phishing
attempt.
B
We've
also
seen
a
lot
of
high
volume,
passwords
spraying
campaigns
against
a
health
care
industry,
you've
seen
a
lot
of
not
only
of
HHS
itself
and
CDC
and
NIH
been
under
high
volume
attack
any
any
company
biotech
labs
pharmaceutical
firms
during
the
healthcare
hospital
systems.
I've
seen
a
large
increase
in
attack
attack
traffic,
we're
seeing
some
of
this
from
nation-state
actors
we're
seeing
some
of
this
from
this
regular
cyber
cyber
criminals
and
we've.
B
We
took
immediate
action,
along
with
the
Brits,
also
publishing
an
advisory
for
international
healthcare
organizations
in
terms
of
some
of
the
things
that
the
healthcare
industry
in
particular
should
be
looking
out.
For
the
other
thing
we've
seen
is
an
increase
in
activity
against,
and
some
of
you
probably
know
this
state
unemployment
agencies
have
seen
the
high
target
or
been
a
high
target
for
malicious
activity.
B
B
As
long
as
that
pandemic
persists,
and
we
ask
that
you
work
with
us
and
take
advantage
of
the
information
we're
putting
out
there
and
spread
the
good
news
among
your
states
to
make
sure
that
your
constituents
as
well
state
agencies
are
doing
all
they
can
to
protect
themselves
during
the
height
of
cyber
risk.
Let
me
make
a
final
point
on
election
security.
I
know
that's
on
priority
for
many
of
you,
and
certainly
generally
before
Kovach.
B
B
The
thrust
of
what
we've
been
doing
for
a
number
of
months
now
and
the
pandemic
has
certainly
put
a
different
feel
to
it
and
that
some
of
the
primaries
of
the
postpone.
But
you
know
the
election
process-
continues
and
we're
we're
in
a
full-court
press
to
get
every
every
state
of
a
community
as
resilient
and
secure
for
the
November
elections,
as
we
can.
Obviously,
COBIT
has
changed
the
nature,
how
we
think
about
conducting
elections.
B
Since
the
kovat
outbreak
to
look
at
how
we
can
improve-
or
you
know,
increase
capacity
for
voting
by
mail.
Obviously,
there
is
going
to
be
an
impediment
for
the
type
of
in-person
voting,
whether
it's
in
November,
because
the
pandemic
is
still
among
and
you're
still
among
us
or
just
the
sensibilities
that
people
are
going
to
have
with
the
version
they
might
have
to
going
out
in
the
public
place
and
casting
a
vote.
B
So
we're
really
pushing
to
make
sure
that
vote
by
mail
provisions
are
being
built
and
increased
for
the
anticipated
increased
volume
of
vote
by
mail
and
we're
also
working
with
United
States
Postal
Service
as
well
the
CDC
on
election
specific
activities.
So
we
again,
we
have
a
lot
of
election
information
on
our
system.
Gov
website
encourage
you
all
to
check
out
that
we
maintain
our
position
that
voting
through
the
internet
involves
too
much
risk.
It
opens
up
too
much
room
for
mischief
and
so
the
absentee
voting
voting
by
mail.
B
A
C
B
Supporter
of
that
motor
voting,
so
I'll
sum
it
up
by
saying
that
you
are
incredibly
important
to
not
only
the
cyber
ecosystem
but
also
myself,
the
beginning,
making
sure
that
our
infrastructure
and
continue
to
not
only
remain
viable
but
to
thrive
on
the
rope,
and
we
need
it's
not
just
the
food
supply.
It's
the
mechanical
sectors
that
repair
our
trucks
that
manufacture,
components
that
run
factories
as
well
as
other
preppy.
B
You
know
other
elements
of
our
kind
and
may
not
be
at
the
forefront
all
the
time,
but
when
I
endemic
cabbage,
you
realize
how
valuable
all
different
parts
of
America's
infrastructure
are
and
making
sure
that
we
can
continue.
You
know
growing
our
nation
and
living
our
lives,
and
so
at
the
state
level.
It's
important
that
your
constituents
are
informed
about
this,
and
then
your
industry
partners
are
aware.
Are
the
things
that
baby
to
do
to
make
sure
that
you
are
aware
the
things
that
they
need
work?
So
it
can
be
a
facilitator
of
that
discussion.
D
B
To
protect
our
infrastructure,
our
networks
and
our
elections,
and
we
do
that
as
partners
with
you.
The
one
thing
I'll
say
too,
is
that
everything
we
do
is
a
voluntary
partnership.
I
just
inserted
me
say
this
is
some
of
the
task
force
meetings,
I
have
one
regulatory
authority,
and
that
is
over
the
chemical
industry.
We
regulate
security
standards
for
the
chemical
industry.
B
Everything
else
we
do
is
voluntary,
so
no
one
has
to
work
with
sisse,
and
so
we
try
to
take
on
very
much
a
customer
service
model
of
leaning
forward
and
trying
to
make
as
many
people
aware
of
our
information
briefs
and
alerts.
Our
exercises,
our
training,
our
technical
services.
We
continue
to
have
the
ability
to
help,
diagnose
and
help
do
full
mobility
assessments
on
computer
networks.
Everything
we
do
is
free,
but
everything
we
do
is
a
voluntary
partnership.
A
C
Yeah,
thank
you,
deputy
director
for,
during
those
an
accent
overview.
So,
while
folks
are
thinking
about
their
questions
and
then
again
encourage
everyone
to
enter
any
questions
you
might
have
for
the
deputy
director
there
in
the
chat
box,
we're
doing
the
Q&A
a
little
bit
different
today,
where
we're
following
the
questions
directly
after
the
presenters.
So
for
now,
I'd
like
to
queue
us
up
with
a
question.
So
you
know.
Is
there
a
reporting
mechanism
that
folks
can
use
to
submit
fraudulent
information
that
they
come
across
or
constituents
come
across
absolutely.
B
So
we
have
a
an
operation
center
at
24
hours
a
day,
seven
days
a
week
and
if
you
go
to
our
website,
you'll
see
a
couple
of
buttons.
But
if
you
want
to
report
something
coded
related
or
something
cyber-related,
you
can
hit
that
button.
It'll
give
us
the
email,
there's
also
I,
think
a
phone
number,
that's
listen.
You
want
to
call
us
directly
and
yeah.
B
We've
got
folks
around
the
clock,
your
fielding
inquiries
and
requests
and
absolutely
please,
when
you
see
malicious
behavior
when
you
see
or
if
you
have
questions
or
need
assistance
on
something,
that's
not
side
related,
but
it
deals
with
America's
infrastructure.
Certainly
we
welcome
that
communication.
Yeah.
C
Excellent
and-
and
you
know,
we
can
certainly
provide
that
on
our
resources,
page
after
the
fact,
so
folks
can
locate
that
there,
and
you
know,
just
especially
for
this
group
I,
think
you
know.
We
probably
wonder
you
know
if
this
doesn't
provide.
You
know
technical
assistance
to
States.
You
know
to
help
them
navigate.
Cyber
issues
in
the
state
networks
in
particular,
especially
as
state
legislators,
are
moving
to
virtual
sessions
and
even
voting.
C
B
So
that
said,
you
know
we
do
everything.
We
can
never
to
say
no
at
any
time
whether
it's
a
local
jurisdiction,
whether
it's
a
mayor
or
a
city
manager,
whether
it's
a
head
of
a
state
agency.
If
you
need
assistance
with
your,
you
know
your
networks
in
terms
of
a
vulnerability
assessment,
we
can
do
that
in
person.
We
also
have
deployed
teams
that
we
haven't.
You
know
we've
held
them
at
bay
here
during
the
pandemic
different
disease,
but
lower
normal
operations.
B
We've
got
teams
that
will
deploy
on
location
and
work
with
your
organization's
to
do
in-person,
testing
and
assessments
of
not
only
the
the
network
configuration
as
well
as
the
type
of
traffic
that's
coming
into
your
system,
but
also
kind
of
an
administrative
review
of
you
know
who
has
access
to
your
network?
What
type
of
SOPs
do
you
have
because
part
of
cybersecurity
is
making
sure
that
you're
restricting
who
actually
has
access
to
your
network?
Helping
you
understand.
B
What's
on
your
network,
those
types
of
basic
questions
in
cyber
hygiene
we
do
and
free
of
charge,
and
the
other
thing
I
will
say
everything
we
do,
whether
you're
a
private
sector
company,
whether
you're
a
municipal
organization
or
a
public
organization,
one.
It's
free,
that's
relation
between
sisse
and
you,
and
so
we
don't
share
that
information.
That
is
your
report
in
terms
of
where
we
see
potential
vulnerabilities
or
recommendations,
whether
it's
an
election
system
or
just
a
stink
Network.
D
B
C
Excellent
yeah,
that's
great
news,
that'd
be
a
great
resource
as
well
I.
You
know
one
more.
You
know
especially
of
interest
for
this
group
and
for
our
members
is,
you
know
wonder
if
you
can
elaborate
a
little
bit
on
the
you
know
the
working
groups
active
by
mail
issue
as
you're
thinking
about
upcoming
election
days
and
yeah
any
resources
on
that.
So.
B
I
can
certainly
come
back
to
you
and
Susan
and
get
you
an
update
and
have
Matt
Masterson
who's.
Our
elections
guru
to
talk
about
that
I've
got
personally
been
involved
in
those
discussions.
I
know
that
relatively
views
that
we
stood
them
up
with
the
Aiea
see
but
I
think
you'll
be
hearing
more
from
us
on
the
election
front.
Here
is
that
we
get
into
the
summer
as
the
fall
gets
closer
about
our
all
the
different
ways
we
can
ensure.
You
know
we
got
to
make
sure
that
everyone
has
a
chance
to
vote.
B
A
Awesome
Thank
You
deputy
director
we're
gonna
move
on
to
our
next
speaker
now
and
I
would
like
to
now
introduce
Ryan
Lambert
on
his
current
role.
Mr.
Lambert
serves
as
a
senior
adviser
for
the
US
Small
Business
Administration's
congressional
and
legislative
affairs
office
working
closely
with
congressional
staff.
Ryan
also
handles
SBA's
intergovernmental
affairs,
providing
a
direct
contact
for
state
and
local
elected
officials
across
the
nation
after
graduating
from
the
University
of
South
Carolina,
he
spent
years
working
with
clients
running
for
political
office
and
eventually
opened
up
a
small
business.
A
Consulting
firm
based
in
Baton
Rouge
Louisiana
he's
been
with
the
SBA
since
2017
and
his
various
roles
have
allowed
him
to
travel
to
different
parts
of
the
country
hearing
from
small
businesses
and
how
the
Small
Business
Administration
can
be
a
better
resource
to
them.
So
I
will
now
turn
the
meeting
over
to
Ryan
Lambert.
Thank.
D
This
program,
which
is
huge,
those
are
very
large
numbers
in
really
what
amounts
to
about
four
and
a
half
to
five
weeks
total.
At
this
point
you
know
that's
512
billion
dollars
in
loans
and
and
what
we
had
said
during
round
one
for
the
agency.
We
said
that
we
did
14
years
worth
of
loans
in
just
14
days
and
now,
with
round
2.
We've
done
more
loans
in
round
2
than
we
did
in
round
one
so
I.
You
know
that
is
kind
of
a
dick
ative
of
a
couple
things
I
want
to
get
into
one.
D
D
But
it
also
is
indicative
of
the
work
that
our
lending
team
has
put
on
to
really
help
and
bring
on
new
participating
lenders
across
the
nation,
because,
at
the
end
of
the
day
the
small
business
has
to
go
to
a
lender
to
apply
for
these
loans.
These
aren't
SBA
given
loans.
These
are
SBA
guaranteed
loans,
and
so
you
know
just
we
went
from
about
1500
ish
lenders
participating
in
our
regular
7a
program
that
were
active.
D
You
know
over
5,000,
almost
5500
actual
lenders
across
the
nation
that
are
able
to
give
these
loans
out
or
or
offer
these
loans
at
least,
and
what
that
number
doesn't
include
is
the
tens
of
thousands
of
people
inside
that
work
for
those
lenders
that
also
have
access
to
be
able
to
give
these
loans.
So
you
know,
there's
been
a
lot
of
movement
in
a
very
short
period
of
time
in
both
rounds
of
the
Paycheck
protection
program
and
I.
D
Understand
that
there's
guidance
that
is
coming
out
daily,
almost
either
through
interim
final
rules
or
also
frequently
asked
questions
and
I
just
urge
you
to
you
know
if
you
have
constituents
or
if
you
yourself
have
a
small
business
and
continue
to
look,
you
are
looking
for
new
guidance
and
updating
guidance.
All
of
that
it
is
always
available
and
always
updated
on
sba.gov,
slash,
paycheck
protection
or
Treasury
das.
D
D
The
the
second
item,
I,
think
everybody
has
been
aware
of
mostly
is
the
economic
injury
disaster
loan
program.
Where
the
cares
Act
itself,
the
bill
itself
actually
created
another
piece
to
an
economic
injury
disaster,
one
what
we
call
an
up
to
$10,000,
advance
or
$1,000
per
employee
and
really
what
that
is.
D
That's
a
brand-new
program
that
we
had
to
stand
up
in
just
seven
days
and
at
this
point,
there's
been
over
10
billion
dollars
of
non
repayable
advances
that
have
gone
out
and
again
these
are
non
repayable,
so
they're
essentially
act
as
a
grant,
but
there's
a
important
lifeline
as
well,
and
then
the
second
piece
is
the
actual
loan
itself,
the
economic
injury
disaster.
One
now
that
loan
is
it
is
a
loan,
but
it's
a
very
long-term
30-year
loan.
D
So
it's
much
lower
repayment,
low
interest
and
a
real
good
working
capital
loan
for
the
small
businesses
getting
fook,
Ovid
and
I.
You
know,
I,
don't
know
if
the
numbers
are
up
online,
but
we've
done
over
twenty
four
billion
dollars
in
those
in
I.
Don't
want
so
then,
third
year,
I
want
to
move
over
to
another
piece
of
the
Karen
Act
called
debt
relief
and
what
debt
relief
is
may
is
allowing
the
SBA
to
do.
D
But
we
call
our
Resource
Partners
are
the
small
business
development
centers
women's
business
centers
and
the
score
chapters
and
what
they
do
is
they
provide
free,
counseling
and
training
for
small
businesses
across
the
nation
and
there's
over
a
thousand
offices
of
those.
So
I
really
believe
there
there's
more
it's
much
more
likely
that
you
will
have
an
office
very
close
to
you
and,
and
they
do
more
than
just
counseling
and
training
they
also
provide.
D
They
do
events
for
small
businesses
and
very
often
coordinated
and
and
work
together
with
local
elected
officials,
state
elected
officials,
as
well
as
on
the
federal
side
as
well.
So,
but
that
ties
into
the
cares
Act,
because
we've
gotten
additional
funding
I
offer
to
the
resource
partners
in
the
form
of
a
grant
for
them
to
focus
on
covetous
19
assistance
to
small
businesses.
And
at
this
point
those
funds
have
been
going
out
for
the
last
week
and
a
half.
D
The
the
team
that
is
in
charge
of
that
here
at
SBA
has
worked
very
quickly
and
very
closely
with
the
leaders
of
those
of
the
small
business
development
centers
and
the
women's
business
centers
to
ensure
that
their
grant
get
out
quickly
and
that
they're
able
to
utilize
this
and
help
the
small
businesses.
So
if
you
haven't
yet
I
would
urge
you
to
reach
out
to
your
closest
resource
partner
and
see
if
they
have
any
events
going
on
or
if
there's
any
way
that
that
you
know
any
important
information
that
they're
doing
on
the
local
side.
D
That
would
be
important
and
useful
for
you
guys
to
know
the
last
piece
now
I'm
sure
you
all
have
already
in
worked
with,
but
our
district
offices
are
a
important
piece
to
our
field
program
at
the
SBA
and
we
have
68
district
offices
across
the
nation.
But
inside
of
those
district
offices,
we
have
over
500
employees,
and
that
is
those
are
SBA
staff
members
and
they're.
D
So
I
you
know,
want
to
really
encourage
your
outreach
in
and
your
integration
with
the
district
offices,
the
SBA
district
offices,
if
you
haven't
yet
because
there's
they
are
a
good
resource
for
you
and
our
waste
there
and
all
of
those
the
resource
partners,
as
well
as
the
district
offices,
their
location,
contact,
information
and
anything
else.
You
might
need.
All
of
that
can
be
found
on
on
our
website
at
sba.gov.
D
D
The
office
is
intergovernmental
affairs
at
the
SBA
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
you
guys
know
that
my
office
I'm
always
available
for
whatever
you
might
need
from
a
headquarters
fan
started
standpoint,
but
we
also
have
regional
administrators
who
are
also
a
good
resource
for
you,
and
that
would
suggest
that
you
reach
out
to
them
as
well,
and
so
with
that
I
am
open
to
questions
here.
I,
don't
know
how
we
want
to
go
about
this,
but
that's
this
back
to
you.
C
Hey
Ryan
yeah
thanks
so
much
for
your
presentation.
That's
really
helpful
and
I
know
that
it's
been,
it's
been
a
really
hot
topic
and
you've
been
really
responsive
and
helpful.
10
CS
also
I
really
yeah.
Thank
you
for
that
and
for
your
partnership.
Well,
folks
were
thinking
about
questions
and
I
know
that
you
know
there
are
some
recent
we've
gotten
some
recent
questions.
You
know
for
members
and
the
folks
have
been
wondering
you
know.
Of
course,
funds
ran
out
once
for
these
programs.
C
As
we
know,
and
we're
replenished
by
the
most
recent
stimulus
package,
wondering
what
is
the
likelihood
do
you
think
that
that
will
happen
again
and
do
you
anticipate
when
that
might
happen
again,
all
in
in
keeping
in
mind
that
legislators
are
going
to
be
trying
to
state
legislators
are
going
to
be
trying
to
advise
you
know
they're
their
constituents.
You
know
they're
fielding
these
questions
all
the
time,
yeah
I'll
stop
there.
D
Sure
so
so
that
comes
to
mind
two
things:
one
I
want
to
break
out:
paycheck
protection
and
Idol
for
this
answer,
but
the
first
with
Paycheck
protection,
there's
still
funds
available,
there's
still
a
good
bit
of
funds
available.
Because
of
how
the
the
you
know
we
have
to.
We
pay
a
fee
to
the
lenders
for
every
one
that
they
make.
I
don't
have
an
exact
number
of
how
much
is,
but
there's
something
like
six
hundred
and
fifty
billion
dollars
for
the
loan
program
itself,
and
so
far
we've
gone
through
five
hundred
and
twelve
billion
dollars.
D
So
there's
there's
quite
a
bit
and
again
it
goes
back
to
the
loans
themselves
are
much
smaller
this
time,
and
so
you
know
this
is
it's
being
spread
out
a
little
bit
longer
than
it
did
last
time,
which
last
time
it
took
fourteen
days
right
and
and
now
we're
on
I
believe
this
is
week
three
we're
still
funding
last.
So
that's
that's
a
good
thing.
D
In
the
meantime,
the
the
round
two
of
funding
for
economic
injury
disaster
loan
allowed
for
the
first
time
in
FDA's
history
also
for
agriculture
enterprises,
agricultural
businesses,
to
be
able
to
apply
for
these
economic
injury
disaster
lines,
and
so
we
opened
up
a
limited
eligibility
for
for
Ag
business.
It
is
to
be
able
to
apply
for
economic,
international
or
inal
all
right,
so
that's
going
on
now.
As
far
as
funding,
you
know
it's
it's
again:
it's
always
up
to
the
House
and
Senate
on
funding.
C
D
D
We
wanted
to
make
sure
the
AG
business
has
had
a
chance
to
apply,
because
the
reality
is
that
the
non
AG
business
has
had
about
a
month
nationwide,
depending
it
might
have
been
a
little
bit
less,
but
about
a
month
to
be
able
to
apply
for
economic
injury
disaster
loans
before
it
ran
out
of
the
first
round
of
funding.
But
now.
C
C
D
Yeah
we
work
on
it.
Agricultural
enterprises
there's
a
very
specific
definition,
but
it
is
an
agriculture
business
and
the
reality.
The
reason
why
and
this
what
we've
been
able
to
gather
the
reason
why
one
they
were
set
by
law,
they
were
not
able
to
get
in
hide
alone,
because
my
understanding
is
that
USDA
has
a
program
available
for
that,
but
it
doesn't
pertain
to
coven
like
ours
are
either
one
now
yeah.
C
That's
why
I
would,
for
this
group
in
particular
just
want
to
Swit
switch
gears
to
the
kind
of
like
eligibility
requirements
around
both
the
PPP
and
idle
loans,
specifically
on
the
criminal
criminal
history
requirements
and
I
know
that
there's
like
specific
guidance
released
on
that
for
Paycheck
protection,
but
there
hasn't
been
on
Idol,
but
there's
still
questions
on
the
application
for
the
idle
loan
on
criminal
history.
So
can
you
talk
about
those
eligibility
requirements
and
how
it
restricts?
Who
is
eligible
yeah.
D
Idle
is
a
little
different
than
the
Paycheck
protection
program,
where
idle
is
a
program
that
we
have
year
in
year
out
right,
and
so
we
have
what
we
call
standard
operating
procedures
and,
and
that
really
lay
out
and-
and
there
is
you
know
where
was
when
I
last
saw
you
know
some
sort
of
a
barrier
or
restriction
on
depending
if
you
do
have
a
criminal
history.
I
don't
have
the
specifics
right
in
front
of
me,
but
that
is
they
are
online.
What
is
their
but
with
Paycheck
protection?
D
Now,
when
the
reality,
though,
is
that
you
know
any
suggestions
or
any
feedback
that
you
guys
are
getting
from
constituents
or
small
businesses
or
whatnot,
we're
always
open
to
taking
it,
and
and
we
make
sure
that
it's
shared
with
our
policy
team
and
and
so
they
can
be
aware
of
what
is
being
heard
and
talked
about.
Yeah.
C
C
Services
are
being
left
out
of
this
important
aid
because,
because
some
of
their
owners,
you
know
an
owner
or
you
know,
what
have
you
found
er
doesn't
have
or
has
it
has
a
criminal
history
of
some
sort?
So
we
don't
have
you
know
policy
on
that,
necessarily
what
we
sort
of
do
or
entry
policy
and
our
committee.
But
you
know
it's
certainly
something
that
you
were
seeing.
You
know
legislative
fixes
on
the
hill
already
and
like
folks
are
talking
about.
So
that's
why.
