I believe the most recent round of anti-Asian attacks are the aftermath of one year of hateful attacks.
Discrimination against women is a part of America's history, but it should not be our future. That is why we need the equal rights amendment. It was not an accident that women were left out of the Constitution. The Founders very much…
Every day, constituents in my district are asking when the $1,400 survival checks are coming and when they can get help with their rent so that they don't become homeless. They are suffering, and they need help now. Mr. Speaker, the…

It is my hope that considering what we learned today that the SBA will fully cooperate with the GAO and the OIG to improve these programs for our Nation's small businesses.
I would like to thank our witnesses for joining us both virtually and in person to share their important testimony today.
The oversight work of the OIG and GAO is vital to ensuring that we root out instances of fraud and abuse and spend America's tax dollars wisely especially since our small businesses need so much help.
This is a proven success that reaches significantly more women and minority-owned businesses than the traditional 7(a) program.
