Spurring Small Business
Small businesses create over 60% of all new jobs and are the backbone of our local economy. They are integral to America's economic recovery and I strongly support policies that help Americans sustain, grow and start businesses.
Small businesses lead the way with cutting edge innovation and ingenuity. By employing local workers, they help stimulate the demand for goods and services in the community. We must ensure the viability of these businesses.
To assist small businesses I will fight for access to better credit sources for new and existing companies seeking to expand operations. To support local entities, I have initiated and conducted a series of Small Business Seminars to connect local owners with needed resources. I encourage lenders to provide small businesses with the credit necessary to operate, expand, and add jobs. Small businesses also need fair tax relief which will provide necessary investments in future growth.
There is nothing small about small business commitment to our community or their impact on the nation. Within the Eleventh Congressional District of Ohio, small businesses have often led our economic recovery and prosperity and I am committed to help them grow and thrive.
