Pillsbury is carefully tracking the implications of various programs designed to stimulate the global economy and reduce financial strains caused by the coronavirus pandemic.

Our analysis spans U.S. legislative actions like the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) and the $2 trillion Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act and examines the intricacies of their component programs, including funding offered by the Small Business Association (SBA) and the Treasury Department/Federal Reserve. We also anticipate still-developing stimulus efforts that can advance global financial recovery and present new opportunities for businesses to get back on their feet.

Our team is actively addressing client questions related to the CARES Act and other stimulus developments. Since the 335-page bill was passed, we have helped clients navigate the new law and understand their opportunities to secure government assistance. We have been engaged by leading retailers, security companies, real estate interests, manufacturers, hotel chains, health care providers and others to provide a range of services, including:

  • Providing customized, comprehensive political and legal analysis and recommendations on the best options for pursuing local, state and federal funding and tax benefits made possible by new stimulus legislation;
  • Providing government contracting counsel to help clients professionalize their loan and grant applications and position them for the best chance for success;
  • Addressing complex regulatory issues that arise on an agency-by-agency basis;
  • Providing ongoing compliance support and political law guidance in the face of potential agency and Congressional oversight;
  • Serving as “eyes and ears” in Washington and with our multistate network to protect and advance their interests during an especially dynamic time; and
  • Lobbying Congress for client priorities in future stimulus legislation that Congress is developing.
