DOT Prepping for Manufacturing Jobs Relief Aid
The U.S. DOT has released a notice and set up a website to detail the necessary steps a manufacturer/MRO must take to apply for Covid relief funds.

The U.S. Department of Transportation has established a website and on Wednesday published a notice providing information surrounding participation in the Aviation Manufacturing Jobs Protection (AMJP) program that was established in the most recent Covid-19 relief bill, the American Rescue Plan Act. Congress set aside $3 billion for the AMJP program, which will provide grants for eligible manufacturers and maintenance businesses to retain, recall, or rehire affected workers. the AMJP program sets up a 50/50 cost-share program to cover compensation for workers.
