What the $2T Stimulus Package Means for You

The United States Congress passed a $2 trillion COVID-19 economic relief package on March 27, 2020 with overwhelming bipartisan support.  The National Association of REALTORS® released a summary on how these programs will be implemented.  When more guidance is released from state and federal entities on how these new programs will be implemented, we will update this page.

REVIEW THE SUMMARY

Families First Coronavirus Response Act

Impact of H.R. 6201 "Families First Coronavirus Response Act"


Congress has passed the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (H.R. 6201) providing support to American workers, families, and businesses, including the expansion of paid sick leave and family medical leave.  It also includes refundable tax credits for small businesses and self-employed individuals to cover the cost of the leave.  While this legislation mainly addresses employment issues, the National Association of REALTORS’ advocacy team expects legislation targeting the overall economy to come later.

Louisiana REALTORS® encourages you to reach out to your tax professional to determine if this act can assist you or your business during this trying time.
