ERC Backlog Report

The backlog of unprocessed ERC claims is currently over one million. Through our ERC Backlog Report, HIRE endeavors to uncover the scale of unprocessed ERC claims in each state and Congressional district. The report is a work in progress as we collect data from across the country.

HIRE is dedicated to supporting innovative policies that help employers:


  • Hire individuals facing barriers to employment.
  • Invest in their workforce through benefits including paid family leave and child care.
  • Retain and train employees.
  • Expand their footprint in the USA.

We support legislation and/or administrative policies that would enhance programs such as:


  • Work Opportunity Tax Credit (IRC § 51)
  • Federal Empowerment Zone Credit (IRC § 1396)
  • Paid Family and Medical Leave Credit (IRC § 45S)
  • Employer-provided Child Care Credit (IRC § 45F)
  • Employee Retention Credits (off-Code provisions)
