Small businesses are still suffering. They are doing their best to regain footing after the COVID-19 pandemic.

the upskilling and the workforce training, the lifelong learning to make sure that entrepreneurs have access to the people that they need.

On a regular basis we have had townhalls and we have had regular meetings throughout my business roundtable discussions, and they brought this issue up over and over.

Imagine that. A jobs plan that would result in fewer jobs. Think about it.

Small businesses are the kindling that light up the American economy, so when they struggle, so does our Nation.

It is amazing to me that at a time where so many small businesses are really just trying to find the new normal, that we are talking about increasing tax burden on small business.

I know we have been talking a lot about the American Jobs Plan that President Biden released in March.

I thank my friend, Representative Suozzi from New York, for yielding. And I want to thank him for working with me in a bipartisan push to repeal the cap on SALT deductions that is hurting American workers and families. Californians in the…

now is not the time to handcuff business and job creators with tax burdens, especially on non-brick-and-mortar infrastructure.

Thanks for mentioning that. That is why I introduced the Innovations in Informal STEM Learning Act and, hopefully, that will prepare our next generation of workers for the right jobs.

In closing, I would like to, once again, thank Representative Sherman and Representative Chabot for their work on this resolution. It has been said before, but I will say it again, COVID-19 has shown that pandemics know no borders. Allies…

The taxpayers deserve answers from the administrator as it relates to those programs that have been implemented by the current administration.

I share Chair and Ranking Member and my colleagues' frustration, and I am also disappointed Secretary Yellen is not testifying today.

Thank you, Chairman Crow. Following a year of unprecedented state and local government shutdowns and regulations, and hampered demand due to COVID-19, small businesses are collectively starting to recover.

As one of the first Korean- American women to serve in Congress, I am proud to rise today in solidarity with the Asian American Pacific Islander community and in strong support of the Senate-amended, bipartisan COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act, S…

I am proud to stand in support of H.R. 1157, the Department of State Authorization Act of 2021. I want to thank Chair Meeks and Ranking Member McCaul for their efforts to reform the State Department, including offering improved job and…

SBIR and STTR programs are critical tools for small businesses to reach, develop, and commercialize innovative technologies to create good paying jobs for increasing our competitiveness abroad.

I thank the gentleman from Louisiana for hosting this Special Order tonight. As we celebrate National Police Week, I would like to also add my voice to recognizing the brave men and women who put their lives on the line to keep our…
