American Rescue Plan Act Support
ARC Travel Services Division (TSD) is working with the Department to support the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. The Act is a $1.9 trillion economic stimulus bill signed into law in March.
The package builds on many measures in the CARES Act that Travel previously supported. Because of the decrease in travel because of the pandemic, ARC Travel can aid the Department while maintaining coverage for travel assistance.
Designated Travel Services employees will help with reviewing documents for the Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERA), Homeowners Assistance Fund (HAF), and the State & Local Fiscal Recovery Plan (SLFRP) projects.
Besides TSD, ARC's Financial Management and Human Resources departments have also contributed to the American Rescue Plan Act by providing support for payments and hiring.
