Posted on Date: Mar 19, 2020

H.R. 6201 did pass the Senate yesterday and was signed into law by the President. The Labor Department will now interpret the law and finalize the rules to execute the law. This chart (link here) provided by Senate staff may help explain some of the paid leave requirements from H.R. 6201. Please remember that there will be additional legislation being introduced, most importantly, how franchisees can gain access to capital to get through the crisis. AAFD is actively engaged in that process. Stay tuned for the next update and action requested.
