WASHINGTON – Today, House Committee on Small Business Chairman Steve Chabot (R-OH) released the following statement in recognition of National Veterans Small Business Week; November 5-9, 2018. According to the United States Small Business Administration, there are 2.5 million veteran-owned small businesses in the United States, with a 3 percent growth from 2007-2012.
“Our nation’s heroes work hard to preserve and protect the homeland. They deserve to have the necessary resources to bring their business dreams to life as they continue to contribute to the American economy. With nearly one in ten small businesses owned by a veteran, it’s critical we work together to ensure our veteran entrepreneurs have the tools they need to succeed.”
This Congress, Chairman Chabot is an original co-sponsor of H.Res. 588, which supports National Veterans Small Business Week.
