According to the Small Business Administration, over 400,000 workers are employed by small businesses in Nevada. Nevada's small businesses play a pivotal role in creating jobs and growing our local economy, said Rosen. As we kick off the holiday season, I encourage Nevadans to shop local on Small Business Saturday. I'll continue to champion policies that are pro-business and give local entrepreneurs the resources they need as we move forward in building a strong local economy. BACKGROUND: Congresswoman Rosen has been a champion for small businesses and is an original co-sponsor of the NIST Small Business Cybersecurity Act of 2017, which passed the House last year. H.R. 2105 would direct the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to work with other federal agencies to create and make available clear and concise resources to help small businesses identify, manage, and reduce their cybersecurity risks. Rosen is also a co-sponsor of the Small Business Cybersecurity Enhancement Act, bipartisan legislation that would create a loan guarantee program for small businesses to cover the costs of acquisition and installation of cybersecurity technology and services. In May, Rosen submitted requests to House appropriators to support Nevada entrepreneurs and workers. Rosen requested appropriations for the Small Business Administration's (SBA) Entrepreneurial Development Program, Small Business Development Centers that give free or low-cost assistance, 21st Century Community Learning Centers that provide academic enrichment, and industry partnerships to improve apprenticeship programs. Earlier this year, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce awarded Rosen its Spirit of Enterprise Award for her support for pro-growth policies in the first session of the 115th Congress. Rosen was one of only 13 Democrats in Congress to receive the award this year. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
