This legislation, titled the SBA Fraud Enforcement Extension Act , seeks to enhance accountability for fraudulent activities within key pandemic relief programs. Its core purpose is to extend the statute of limitations for both criminal prosecutions and civil enforcement actions related to fraud. The bill specifically targets fraud concerning grants issued under the Shuttered Venue Operators (SVO) program and the Restaurant Revitalization Fund (RRF) . For these programs, it establishes a 10-year statute of limitations , starting from the date of the violation or conspiracy. This extension applies to various federal fraud statutes, providing authorities with more time to investigate and prosecute misconduct in the distribution and use of these critical relief funds.
