Tenney “pressed the US Small Business Administration (SBA) Administrator, Isabella Casillas Guzman, on why the SBA provided Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans to Planned Parenthood when the law passed by Congress made clear that the organization did not qualify for PPP loans,” and asked whether the SBA planned to deny forgiveness and require repayment.

Shows Tenney actively raised PPP eligibility/forgiveness enforcement concerns, but it does not show a later policy change requiring relationship-blind bank processing.

SBA says that “all lenders will be required to decision forgiveness applications received through the portal,” and that lenders may continue internal processes but “must also accept DFP applications.”

This is the clearest official evidence on lender processing for PPP forgiveness, but it addresses forgiveness applications rather than a Tenney-specific relationship-blind lending mandate.

SBA states that “lenders can still accept PPP forgiveness applications directly” and explains that borrowers may apply through SBA’s direct forgiveness portal or through their lender.

Officially confirms lenders still process PPP forgiveness applications, but it does not establish a relationship-blind standard or a Tenney-directed outcome.

Tenney’s current office page remains active and shows contemporaneous House activity, but it contains no evidence of any new PPP-specific relationship-blind banking action in the lookback window.

Current office status only; no direct evidence that the PPP claim was delivered, reversed, or newly advanced in the last 30 days.
