Summary

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act contains more than $350 billion to help American workers and small businesses. But since the bill was signed, many small businesses owners have complained they’re unable to get the money. Fox Business correspondent Edward Lawrence and business owners discuss why the money is being held up and how companies are coping as they wait. Even as Coronavirus outbreak swept across the United States, one giant source of anxiety for millions of Americans was a toilet paper shortage. Jim Luke, an economics professor at Lansing Community College and strategist for a toilet paper distribution company, explains why we saw so many empty shelves and when we can expect a return to normalcy. Plus, commentary by Guy Benson, Fox News Contributor and host of “The Guy Benson Show.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
