Our country is experiencing a small business boom and veteran entrepreneurship is helping to lead the way. SBA offers a number of counseling and training programs that can help them either launch or grow a small business. It is vitally important that we increase the awareness of SBA programs and services, particularly among veterans. I applaud Ms. Davids and Mr. Alford for their commitment to our Nation's veterans, and I urge my colleagues to support H.R. 4480, as amended. Mr. Speaker, in closing, I thank Chairman Williams for bringing these six bills to the floor and for working in a bipartisan manner. I yield back the balance of my time.
