NJBIA says the grants would allow more businesses to stay open.

The bills would provide another $235 million in grants to help small businesses recoup some of their financial losses. Restaurants, small businesses, child care centers and nonprofits would all be eligible to apply for the additional funds. This bucket of money is on top of the $85 million allocated just last month.
