The tour, which began at Washington Square and continued up Broadway to multiple business locations, took place ahead of the national “Small Business Saturday” campaign, which will be celebrated this year on November 26 and is meant to encourage customers to support their local businesses by shopping at them. As a member of the Appropriations Committee, Senator Reed has fought for years on behalf of Rhode Island’s small businesses and helped include $871 million for the SBA in the fiscal year 2016 Omnibus Appropriations spending bill. He also helped secure $231 million for entrepreneurial development grants to provide technical assistance, training, and business planning guidance for starting and growing small businesses. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
