(S. 3612/H.R. 6821); 3) Support local regions by raising the current bank-qualified municipal bond annual issuance limit to $50 million from $10 million to expedite low-cost funding for local projects; 4) Enact bank capital and accounting relief measures to support borrowers and lenders facing historically challenging circumstances by extending Troubled Debt Restructuring (TDR), suspending the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) requirements, and making the 8% Community Bank Leverage Ratio (CBLR) permanent for institutions of $10 billion or less in assets; 5) Create capacity for additional lending by requiring SBA to purchase PPP loan at par; 6) Create a liability safe harbor for businesses from COVID-19-related lawsuits; 7) Support rural America by allowing interest on loans secured by agricultural real estate or primary residences in rural communities to be tax-exempt (ECORA, S. 1641/H.R. 1872), providing direct assistance to farmers, ranchers and others involved in the food sector as needed, and enhance USDA guaranteed lending programs; 8) Expand the Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERTC) created by the CARES Act (H.R. 6776); 9) Enact an Industrial Loan Company moratorium of at least three years on the FDICs approval of deposit insurance applications. (A three-year moratorium was included in the Dodd-Frank Act as an appropriate response to a highly uncertain economic environment); 10) Extend the QM patch to January 2022 to help avoid additional disruption to the housing market. (House and Senate) Second Initiative - Community Bank top priorities for pandemic relief measures - 1) Support Sen. Cramers legislation (S. 4117), which would create a presumption of compliance and forgiveness based on the borrowers certification that the funds were used in accordance with the terms of the program for PPP loans with an original balance of $150,000 or less-allowing business owners to focus on their businesses and the safety of their employees and customers (protections against fraud and misrepresentation still apply). 2) Support Sen. Kings legislation (S. 4171), which would require Treasury or SBA (not a third-party) to create an easy-to-use online loan forgiveness calculator to help clear up what is a very confusing and complex application process. This would ensure borrowers and lenders protection and accuracy. 3) Support Rep. Houlahans legislation (H.R. 7777), which would create a presumption of compliance and forgiveness based on the borrowers certification that the funds were used in accordance with the terms of the program for PPP loans with an original balance of $150,000 or less-allowing business owners to focus on their businesses and the safety of their employees and customers (protections against fraud and misrepresentation still apply). 4) Support Rep.

This would ensure borrowers and lenders protection and accuracy. 5) Create capacity for additional lending by requiring SBA to purchase PPP loans at par (minus the amount that has been forgiven). 6) Ensure PPP loans are not included in regulatory asset threshold calculations. If PPP lending causes our assets to exceed certain thresholds, additional regulations and supervision are triggered, causing many community banks to face costly, burdensome and unintended consequences. 7) Support Sen. Cornyns legislation (S. 3612), which would allow small business PPP borrowers that obtain loan forgiveness to deduct payroll and other business expenses, as they ordinarily would. Without this, the value of a PPP loan is effectively reduced and tax preparation is unnecessarily cumbersome. 8) Support Rep. Holdings legislation (H.R. 6821), which would allow small business PPP borrowers that obtain loan forgiveness to deduct payroll and other business expenses, as they ordinarily would. Without this, the value of a PPP loan is effectively reduced and tax preparation is unnecessarily cumbersome. 9) Enact bank capital and accounting relief measures to support borrowers and lenders facing historically challenging circumstances by extending TDR, suspending CECL and making the 8% CBLR permanent for institutions of $10 billion or less in assets. Banks strong capitalization at the beginning of the crisis means that capital and accounting could be implemented without compromising safety and soundness. 10) Create a liability safe harbor for businesses from COVID-19-related lawsuits. Community banks and small businesses have every incentive to ensure the personal safety of their employees and customers. Fear of opportunistic class actions or other suits will inhibit the restoration of economic activity. 11) Support rural America by passing Rep. Watkinss ECORA Act (H.R. 1872), which exempts interest on most agricultural loans from taxable income (lowering interest rates for farmers, ranchers and rural homeowners), provides direct assistance to farmers, ranchers and others involved in the food sector as needed, and enhances USDA guaranteed lending programs.

Banks strong capitalization at the beginning of the crisis means that capital and accounting could be implemented without compromising safety and soundness. 10) Create a liability safe harbor for businesses from COVID-19-related lawsuits. Community banks and small businesses have every incentive to ensure the personal safety of their employees and customers. Fear of opportunistic class actions or other suits will inhibit the restoration of economic activity. 11) Support rural America by passing Rep. Watkinss ECORA Act (H.R. 1872), which exempts interest on most agricultural loans from taxable income (lowering interest rates for farmers, ranchers and rural homeowners), provides direct assistance to farmers, ranchers and others involved in the food sector as needed, and enhances USDA guaranteed lending programs.

(S. 3612/H.R. 6821); 3) Support local regions by raising the current bank-qualified municipal bond annual issuance limit to $50 million from $10 million to expedite low-cost funding for local projects; 4) Enact bank capital and accounting relief measures to support borrowers and lenders facing historically challenging circumstances by extending Troubled Debt Restructuring (TDR), suspending the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) requirements, and making the 8% Community Bank Leverage Ratio (CBLR) permanent for institutions of $10 billion or less in assets; 5) Create capacity for additional lending by requiring SBA to purchase PPP loan at par; 6) Create a liability safe harbor for businesses from COVID-19-related lawsuits; 7) Support rural America by allowing interest on loans secured by agricultural real estate or primary residences in rural communities to be tax-exempt (ECORA, S. 1641/H.R. 1872), providing direct assistance to farmers, ranchers and others involved in the food sector as needed, and enhance USDA guaranteed lending programs; 8) Expand the Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERTC) created by the CARES Act (H.R. 6776), 9) Extend the QM patch to January 2022 to help avoid additional disruption to the housing market. (House and Senate) Second Initiative - Community Bank top priorities for pandemic relief measures - 1) Support Sen. Cramers legislation (S. 4117), which would create a presumption of compliance and forgiveness based on the borrowers certification that the funds were used in accordance with the terms of the program for PPP loans with an original balance of $150,000 or less-allowing business owners to focus on their businesses and the safety of their employees and customers (protections against fraud and misrepresentation still apply). 2) Support Sen. Kings legislation (S. 4171), which would require Treasury or SBA (not a third-party) to create an easy-to-use online loan forgiveness calculator to help clear up what is a very confusing and complex application process.

Houlahans legislation (H.R. 7777), which would create a presumption of compliance and forgiveness based on the borrowers certification that the funds were used in accordance with the terms of the program for PPP loans with an original balance of $150,000 or less-allowing business owners to focus on their businesses and the safety of their employees and customers (protections against fraud and misrepresentation still apply). 4) Support Rep. Wagners legislation (H.R. 7413), which would require Treasury or SBA (not a third-party) to create an easy-to-use online loan forgiveness calculator to help clear up what is a very confusing and complex application process. This would ensure borrowers and lenders protection and accuracy. 5) Create capacity for additional lending by requiring SBA to purchase PPP loans at par (minus the amount that has been forgiven). 6) Ensure PPP loans are not included in regulatory asset threshold calculations. If PPP lending causes our assets to exceed certain thresholds, additional regulations and supervision are triggered, causing many community banks to face costly, burdensome and unintended consequences. 7) Support Sen. Cornyns legislation (S. 3612), which would allow small business PPP borrowers that obtain loan forgiveness to deduct payroll and other business expenses, as they ordinarily would. Without this, the value of a PPP loan is effectively reduced and tax preparation is unnecessarily cumbersome. 8) Support Rep.
