Bill overview
The Save Our Stages Act, or SOS Act, creates a grant program through the Small Business Administration (SBA) to help live venues and talent representatives recover from economic losses caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Eligible venues must meet specific criteria, including having a defined performance space and employing at least two types of staff. The bill allows for initial grants up to $12 million and supplemental grants equal to 50% of the initial grant, with funds usable for expenses like payroll, rent, and protective equipment, through December 31, 2021. The program is funded with $10 billion.
