He released the following statement: “Minority-owned small businesses are an indispensable economic engine for our city and entire nation that create jobs, drive innovation, as well as make the U.S. a more competitive player on the global stage. However, for these small enterprises to thrive, minority business owners need to have access to resources and capital,” Congressman Al Green said. “This is why I introduced the Minority Business Resiliency Act, which was codified into law through President Biden’s Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. My legislation establishes rural minority business centers, establishes a grant program for minority businesses, and makes the Minority Business Development Agency a permanent agency under the U.S. Department of Commerce.” Congressman Al Green continued, “I am proud to continue championing individual economic mobility for minorities and helping keep the American economy moving forward by hosting this webinar with HCC. Thank you, HCC, for your invaluable support and for expanding business opportunities for minority entrepreneurs across the Greater Houston area.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T03:32:05Z |
