Presidential Declaration Amendment of a Major Disaster for Public Assistance Only for the State of Mississippi

Small Business Administration — observed across 2 documents over 41 days. Use the source documents below before deciding whether this affects your business.

In plain English

The President declared that Mississippi suffered a major disaster and qualifies for federal help to repair public infrastructure and services. Small businesses in Mississippi should watch for an SBA disaster declaration for private companies, since this public-only declaration doesn't fund private business recovery.
