DALLAS/FORT WORTH, TX– As the Small Business Administration (SBA) celebrates its 50^th National Small Business Week, Congressman Marc Veasey invites constituents of the 33^rd District to participate in the June 18^th SBA event in Arlington, TX to help promote their small business.

“During this 50^th Small Business Week, we thank the small businesses which form the backbone of our communities—opening new storefronts, training workers, manufacturing and selling goods in our communities,” said Congressman Veasey. “We also renew our commitment to expanding economic opportunity so that everyone with an idea for a new enterprise or business venture has the ability and resources to translate their dream into reality. For this reason, I co-sponsored a bipartisan resolution to honor the achievements and entrepreneurial spirit of small businesses in the U.S.”

The SBA workshop will feature successful local and national entrepreneurs, to provide hands-on assistance and mentoring for small business owners.
