ADVOCACY BRIEFS

RRF Funds: The SBA confirmed it is working with the DOJ to distribute the remaining $180M in the Restaurant Revitalization Fund (RRF) account.  It is not yet clear when the funds will be sent out, or how recipients will be determined, but the money will provide a lifeline for some of the 177,000 operators that did not receive RRF funds. 

Hospitality is Working: AHLA and Oregon hospitality leaders gathered in Portland recently to highlight hotel employment opportunities and the economic importance of travel.
