“With the news of this funding comes a brand new investment in jobs for South Jersey, and that’s the right news at the right time for our families and small businesses,” said Congressman Andrews. “In the past two weeks, I met with over 30 small business owners from my district, and most said the same thing – they would put more people back to work and expand their businesses if they could get access to a loan. Today, we’ve given creditworthy businesses access to much-needed capital to get the job done.”
Congressman Andrews has indicated that small businesses are the engine for American jobs and have served as the path to economic growth, security and personal success for countless workers and entrepreneurs. As America struggles to fight its way out of this recession, the needs of small businesses cannot be overlooked. With job creation as the top priority, Congressman Rob Andrews will continue to make every effort to assist small businesses whose prosperity is essential to our recovery.
