Oh, man. All those small businesses going for the forgivable loans are going to get crushed at tax time. -- (edited)

While the Feds have said it isn't taxable, most states have not (and in some cases will not) update their laws to conform to the Federal law. So in states like CA and NY that don't automatically conform to Federal law the amount forgiven will be taxable for state purposes. Depending on the amount that could be several hundred thousand dollars of phantom income for some of these businesses. That could mean tax rates of near 11% in CA and 13% in NYC depending on how the business is structured.
