American Rescue Plan Act
The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA) established the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds under sections 602 and 603 of the Social Security Act to help states and local governments address the economic and health consequences of the pandemic. The Coronavirus Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (Fund) provides for payments to non-entitlement units of local government (NEUs), which are local governments typically serving a population under 50,000.
