Small businesses negatively impacted by federal enforcement activity relief program establishment and appropriation

Summary

The bill directs the commissioner of employment and economic development to set up a relief program that awards grants to small businesses that suffered revenue losses from federal enforcement between July 2025 and February 2026. Eligible firms must be Minnesota‑based, have 50 or fewer employees, and show at least a 20% decline in sales or revenue. Grants range from $5,000 to $25,000 per location and are awarded by lottery, with a portion of larger operator grants required to be sub‑granted to tenant businesses.
