Marie Waldron, State Assemblymember –This week is National Small Business Week! The U.S. Small Business Administration has celebrated Small Business Week for more than 50 years to recognize the critical contributions of America’s entrepreneurs and small business owners.
In California, 4.1 million small businesses represent 99.8% of all businesses in the state and employ 7.2 million people. Small exporters bring in 43.2% of California’s total $152.1 billion in yearly export revenue.
This year, Small Business Week applauds the resiliency and tenacity of our entrepreneurs and their employees, who are doing their part to power an economic recovery.
As a small business owner myself, I know firsthand the challenges that local businesses still face and I will continue to advocate for small business in this year’s budget negotiations.
For additional information and resources for small business owners, please visit my website here.
