SECTION 1. Short title.

This Act may be cited as the “Remote Recreational Small Business Interruption Program Act”.

In this Act:

(1) ADMINISTRATOR.—The term “Administrator” means the Administrator of the Small Business Administration.

(2) REMOTE RECREATIONAL BUSINESS.—The term “remote recreational business” means a business in the contiguous United States that is—

(C) only accessible by land via Canada.

SEC. 3. Forgivable loan program for remote recreational businesses.

(a) In general.—The Administrator shall establish a program to make forgivable loans available to remote recreational businesses that experienced a loss in revenue that is greater than 50 percent during the period beginning on March 1, 2020, and ending on July 1, 2020, as compared with the same period during 2019.

(b) Eligibility.—To be eligible for a forgivable loan under subsection (a), a remote recreational business shall—
