Thank you @SenatorCollins and @SenJackReed along with @RepLaHood and @RepSires for your leadership on this issue to help our industry during this challenging time!

[Sen. Susan Collins @SenatorCollins]

1,300 bus & passenger vessel companies—including 11 in Maine—received $1.6 billion in COVID-19 relief. @SenJackReed & I authored this grant program, which will help these businesses weather the economic downturn that hit their industries especially hard.

Be Safe Capitol Hill Friends

[Sam Mintz @samjmintz]

Good news for bus/motorcoach companies: $2 billion in grants from Treasury finally coming, eight months after relief program was signed into law

Bad news: The amount most companies are getting is only about 20% of their lost revenue between 2019 and 2020
