Holdenville Police and Fire departments will see major, and some would say, long overdue, upgrades in equipment, employee bonuses, and debt elimination, thanks to the funding received by the City of Holdenville from the CARES Act. On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was signed into law by President Donald Trump, marking the third and largest major legislative initiative to address COVID-19 to date. The CARES Act contains a number of health-related provisions focused on the outbreak in the United States, including paid sick leave, insurance coverage of coronavirus testing, nutrition assistance, and other programs and efforts. It also includes support for the global response. The City of Holdenville received a total of $423,614.01 in CARES Act funds from the Federal government, through the state of Oklahoma. These funds were used for COVID-19 related expenses incurred between March 1, 2020, and November 30, 2020, which for Holdenville was primarily the salaries and expenses of public safety employees in both the fire and police departments.
