Senator Joni Ernst, a member of the Senate Small Business Committee, has released a video to mark National Small Business Week. In the video, she highlights the resilience of Main Street businesses in the face of challenges brought by the Biden administration. Ernst is spearheading a bipartisan resolution recognizing the important contributions of small businesses across the country.
During her time in office, Senator Ernst has been committed to supporting a variety of initiatives that benefit small businesses. These include improving access to child care, supporting veteran entrepreneurs and rolling back risky lending rules imposed by the Biden administration. In Iowa, Ernst worked on legislation such as the Stop Stolen Courage for Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business Contractors Act, the Small Business Child Care Investment Act, the Evidence Act, and the SCORE Act.
These initiatives aim to address specific challenges facing small businesses, such as closing loopholes in federal contracts, increasing access to affordable child care and reforming mentoring programs for women entrepreneurs. Senator Ernst remains committed to advocating for America’s entrepreneurs and supporting job creation through her work on the Small Business Committee.
