Under pressure, a 2nd major U.S chain will return $20m in federal loans meant for small businesses

Big news in the fight to actually have the monies meant for small businesses be used for small businesses. As it turns out — Ruth Chris Steakhouse will not accept the $20m in loans it had been set to receive from the U.S government ‘s Paycheck Protection Programme.

On Thursday, the restaurant chain announced that it would effectively return the two $10m loans it received totalling the massive amount in federal funds. The move was partially spurred by a massively popular Change.org petition demanding that the chain return the money, because they never actually needed it.
