The Paycheck Protection Program was part of the CARES Act.

There's a ton of citations on the linked Wikipedia page about the problems with the program.The 2020 CARES Act was passed by Congress on March 25, 2020 and signed into law on March 27, 2020 according to the US Treasury site. According to wikipedia on the CARES Act. As a result of bipartisan negotiations, the bill grew to $2 trillion in the version unanimously passed by the Senate on March 25, 2020 and the

Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act was the major amendment made.

How much the Democrats had to do with that amendment negotiation doesn't matter, they will always be blamed for large and expensive Federal government programs that are administered to bad effect. I.E. "tax and spend liberals"

p.s. here's an actual link to the Daily Mail article

EXCLUSIVE: It pays to be rich! America's wealthiest, including Tom Brady, Khloe Kardashian, Reese Witherspoon, Kanye and Nancy Pelosi's husband took millions in PPP loans – and nearly all have been forgiven

Celebrities including Kanye West, Jay-Z and Khloe Kardashian received millions in government PPP (Payment Protection Program) loans, set up for desperate businesses hit by the Covid pandemic

DailyMail.com can now reveal the exact amounts that these millionaires took out via the government program

Kanye West's Yeezy LLC borrowed $2,363,585, with $1,772,689 being spent on payroll for 106 staff

Khloe Kardashian's denim brand Good American LLC had a loan of $1,245,405 approved on April 14, 2020, mostly for the payroll of 57 workers. The full amount, plus interest, was forgiven

In most cases, the loans have been 'forgiven' so the full amount, including interest, will not have to be repaid, despite the owners' wealth
