Representative Brian Jack (R-GA), Chairman of the Small Business Subcommittee on Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Workforce Development, recently welcomed Small Business Administrator Kelly Loeffler to Harris County.
What did these key figures do in Harris County? Together, they hosted a small business roundtable with local leaders and business owners at the Harris County Community Center and visited Breaking Bread sandwich shop and Hamilton Ice Cream Company in Hamilton.
During the roundtable, participants discussed opportunities to expand growth and strengthen partnerships with the Small Business Administration.
What Rep. Brian Jack had to say:
- “I am honored to welcome my friend, Small Business Administrator Kelly Loeffler, to Harris County. For 13 straight years, Georgia has been the #1 State in the country for business, and I am proud to extend that economic winning streak by passing the largest tax cut in American history, eliminating job-killing regulations, and providing small businesses with quicker access to capital.”
What Administrator Kelly Loeffler had to say:
- “Georgia’s 3rd District has a tremendous advocate for small businesses in Congressman Brian Jack, and it was great to join him in Harris County today, where we saw firsthand the opportunities coming to rural communities thanks to the America First economic agenda.”
- “Business owners like Breaking Bread are expanding, creating good-paying jobs, and contributing to Main Streets across America. I appreciated meeting with local leaders at our roundtable and celebrating another SBA success story with the entrepreneurs whose hard work keeps Georgia communities strong.”
Further Context: Following the discussion, Rep. Jack and Administrator Loeffler visited employees and hosted a lunch at Breaking Bread sandwich shop and Hamilton Ice Cream Company.
These two businesses recently opened with the support of a $1.32 million 7(a) loan from the Small Business Administration.
Administrator Loeffler's trip to Harris County marks the 10th visit by a Member of President Trump’s Cabinet to Georgia’s 3rd Congressional District during Rep. Jack’s first term.
