I offered an amendment at the beginning of the debate a couple of days ago that would ensure continuation of funding for some of the high-performing women's business centers across the country, one of them being in Portsmouth, NH, a small facility that manages to serve 1,300 women. It covers Maine, covers northeastern Massachusetts, as well as clients across New Hampshire. This continuation of funding will make a difference for, of course, dozens of business centers, but that translates into thousands of women entrepreneurs across the country. Those small firms in New Hampshire and across the country are the ones that really drive economic growth.
