Proposals from the Small Business Administration would make “detrimental shifts” in the SBA’s 7(a) lending program, CUNA and other organizations wrote to House and Senate Small Business Committee leadership.
CUNA wrote in support of a bill Tuesday that would prevent the Small Business Administration from directly making loans under the 7(a) loan program. Loans made through the 7(a) program are up to 85% guaranteed by the federal government
CUNA joined organizations Wednesday calling on Congressional leaders to remove a provision allowing the SBA to become a direct lender from the reconciliation framework. The proposal would allow the SBA to offer loans of $150,000 of less directly to small businesses.
