Update on this: @SenJackReed asked @SecYellen about aid for the motorcoach at a hearing yesterday. She basically acknowledged the delays, and said the agency is working on it.
The 2nd relief bill passed in December included $2b in emergency help for several industries including motorcoach companies + passenger vessel operators. Nearly 3 months later, Treasury is still figuring out how to distribute. And it could be months more before the money goes out
Breaking: The private bus and motorcoach, school bus and US flag passenger vessel industries collectively asks Congress for $40 billion in government assistance – at Washington, DC
